Hi Richard,
If you're up to XP; why not use Garmin's nRoute plus OSM.
Perfect auto-routing moving map.
Garmin no longer support or provide downloads for nRoute so have a look at
this GPSAustralia post for details:

Seems Openmtbmap has recently got 'sea polygons' organized. :)
Here is a Mapsource Noosa view. It's not 100% for the entire coastline, but
it's pretty damn good.

Coastlines (and the inverse islands issues) have been ongoing for ages for
the Mkgmap produced Garmin files. There's a --generate-sea switch for Mkgmap
that sometimes works fine, other times, not so good. It's hit and miss
enough that I've never enabled it for the maps I generate.
I'll be downloading the Oceania file from
http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/australia-oceania.osm.bz2 tomorrow
morning and making a new Garmin map from it. I'll report back on the
status of the coastline anomaly.

An easy routable OSM source is
http://garmin.na1400.info/routable.php
Once you've selected your tile(s) you get emailed a link where to download
the file from with a choice of installation possibilities - VERY COOL. The
map tiles are far from perfect and update is monthly (I think).

Another OSM routable source of maps with improved track definition is:
