Is there any way to enter coordinates on the 12” connext? I cannot seem to find it, very hard to believe this wouldn’t be an option.
 
No way that i know of, on my "smaller" connext i ended up having to do waypoints. Tested it out by plotting a course to BCI really quick and using navionics app on my tab. Pretty accurate but no auto-route feature on the connext obviously.

It seems mind blowing that they would leave this feature out. It makes no sense.
 
Yeah, the GPS navigation on Connext is pretty poor. I use it on unfamiliar water to find deep spots for surfing and that's about it.

It seems as if it wasn't thought through or if it was left out mistakenly. I mean it gives you the coordinates in the bottom left side of my screen as you're using the map, so why not the option to add them manually?

Or left out intentionally to lower the price they pay Navionics for it?

I wouldn't give Yamaha that much credit. However, I would pay if I need to.
 
That’s some Nintendo NES level infotainment controls.
