Some people on here did get a cover but it may have only came with certain models. I know I've seen one on here but it may have been for the larger displays.

Edit - here's one but it's for the 7" display https://jetboatpilot.com/products/connext-screen-cover

Maybe Yamaha offers a smaller one too? @JetBoatPilot do you know? I don't see one available on this parts page https://www.yamahasportsplaza.com/oemparts/a/yam/59e4f4fc87a8660f70fd749e/electrical-4. If you change boat models to an AR240 and go to the same Electrical Page 4 you will see the cover. I guess the smaller 4.3" doesn't come with a cover option.

I found the radio cover. The connext cover for the 4.3 doesn’t exist, I call @JetBoatPilot and they hadn’t heard of anything for it and the tach gauges I’m still looking

My '17 212X came with screen covers for the main console and the stern radio controls. I never use them, since my boat is garage kept. If I were slipping my boat, I'd use them religiously.

Ours is the factory connext cover. Silicone and same one that comes with the boat from the factory. Seems like it was 2017 when it was introduced.

I agree that this is expensive for a piece of rubber. Any option to adapt an iPad or android tablet cover?

Can you share a link for the radio cover (infinity radio, 2018 year)?

I had a Connext cover delivered with my boat. They say to put the cover on it when there's a chance the screen may sit in the off position int he direct sun. My rule of thumb is to put the cover on at the end of the day and/or trip. Oh yeah...I also leave it loosely on the Connect screen at night as that thing is BRIGHT (even when dimmed)
