    Can I just use a mini card to move helix waypoints to Garmin echomap uhd unit?

    HELIX waypoints are in Humminbird proprietary .hwr format ...

    It is possible to import your HELIX waypoints into the free Humminbird PC software and then export the waypoints out of the Humminbird PC software in .GPX format which Garmin can use ...

    You may also want to make sure that both units are set to the same Map Datum and Position Format for the waypoint coordinates before saving them from the bird and transferring to the Garmin.
