Garmin 235 plotter - help!

I plan to take "Miles Aweigh" from Jax to Miami sometime around Feb 12. My backup chartplotter is a Garmin 235. West Marine informed me that Garmin has discontinued making the chip for this unit. The plotter worked fine from Charleston to Jax but won't go any further without a new chip. Anyone have any ideas about where one might go to find one?

Also anyone have any dock suggestions for Feb 12-20 in Key Biscayne area. Will I get killed on transient rates due to the boat show? I had planned to go on to the keys the next week. Maybe it would be smarter to keep going. Suggestions?
