Best place to get charts for plotter

[henryfreston]

On the edge of ordering a lowrance elite 5 dsi which is a gps chartplotter and fishfinder combo.

I would obviously need uk charts for this. I will only be using it around the gower/swansea for fishing, what is my best bet?

I think they are paper charts, probably won't fit in the SD card slot on the plotter

PS, just checked, the DSI 5 has a micro SD slot, so they definitely won't fit.

PPS, Navionics is the way to go. This is probably closer to what you want

I would check the chart level detail of the silver version. I don't think they show many depth contours and limited navigation aids. Gold ( though nearly double the price) are excellent and you get free NM updates for 12 months.
The navionics website should show the differences between the two
