Topic: creating waypoints Helix 9

[redriverguy]

Here is my issue.  I create a waypoint using the menu system inputting the coordinates of the location and save it.  Then when I try to GO TO the created waypoint it routed me to a location that is different from the input coordinates even though the input coordinates are showing as correct.  Also, if I use the Mark button to create a new waypoint and then use the Go To button to get back to that location it works perfectly.  Does any one have any ideas?  Thank you

Default format for HB waypoints is Degrees Decimal Minutes  ...

If your waypoint format is in a different format from that - you will need to change the HB unit format under the Setup tab and down to “Position Format”  ...

I think that the waypoint format is correctly set but I will verify that when I get down to the boathouse.  Thanks for the reply

Degree Decimal minutes would look like xx°xx.xxx’
