        Which software level do you have?
        The procedure changed with the latest updates.

Mike is right.  You need to use the “export” feature and in older software it this used to be its own menu (Export All Nav Data) under the Nav menu tab.

In the newer software versions it was moved into the “Waypoints, Routes, Tracks” menu, which is also under the Nav main menu tab:
 - Go to the “Nav” menu tab in the main tabbed menu system.
 - Scroll down to the “Waypoints, Routes, Tracks” menu by using the Down Arrow.
 - Open this menu by using the Right Arrow.
 - Scroll up to the “Options” submenu by using the Up Arrow.
 - Open this menu by using the Right Arrow button.
 - Select the “Select All and…” menu by using the Down Arrow.
 - Use the Down Arrow to select the “Export” option.
 - Use the Right Arrow to select “Yes” to answer the question shown on the unit display.

Do you know how to transfer waypoints from SD card to device (998)?I had to delete all data but before that i already stored them to SD card...

Once you insert the SD card with the wapoints on it,
into one of your card slots, you should see a message
stating that it is loading in those waypoints.

Don't touch any buttons or turn off your
machine until that message disappears.

Depending on the software in your unit; you may have to power your Humminbird on first before installing the SD card to get the unit to recognize the file and ask if you want to download them or not.
