Importing Coordinates off of Google Earth to Lowrance

I need the 2Cool Brain to help me figure out my issue. I have used google earth's GPS for my Garmin 4212 and loaded waypoints and details without a problem. I have all the waypoints still stored on GooGle Earth and now need to download the points to my LOWRANCE HDS-5 Gen-2 with Nautic Insight. Is this even possible, and what are the steps i need? Thanks in advance

Try GPS Babble, it converts files to different formats.

I seem to recall importing the Google Earth file into something free to convert it to GPX which the Lowrance can read.
