Yes, my alternative scheme for sea/land does require a TYP file so it can't be the method used in the Garmin maps. What would be very useful is if the IMG format supported a polygon type that cut a hole in the polygon below it. Are we sure that such a beast does not exist? How about trying to find an unlocked Garmin map that contains sea with islands and examine it carefully?
