Raymarine GPS Marks Upload Help

Hi, I am just looking for some advice, I have a Raymarine a series 7"

I have downloaded the maps with the fishing marks to load onto the SD card for my sounder/GPS. It says on the website to use the RWF File for Raymarine although when I put them on the SD card and into the sounder the files did not show up. I tried the same with the GPX File and this worked, but when I tried to load them onto the sounder not all of the marks loaded and some failed.

I am not sure if I am using the correct file for my sounder, if anyone knows what is going on your help would be appreciated.

It would be best to create a custom map like found on the first video here: https://fishingstatus.com/places/maps/custom-fishing-spots-maps

Make sure to select Raymarine for the "Target". This will do some extra processing of the spots that Raymarine just can't seem to handle or figure out how to import on their end.
