New Engine Controls

It has been a long road to get here, a lot of it has been bumpy as well.  In the end it made sense to replace the old engine instruments at the helm and go with new ones from AC DC Marine.  AC DC makes display setup for different boats and we have ones that has gauges for tach, oil pressure and water temp.  We went with the white color vs. the older ones that were black.  Now we will not have ANY issues with the engines.

Installing new ones
Wow, nice job Kris
Kris is even selling the old engine displays on eBay to recover some of the spent money for the new ones.


We also had to take our Raymarine radar/chart plotter out because it was not working, the display only had vertical lines.  For the short term we just bolted a piece of plywood in the hole until we figure out what we want to do.  There is also a 2" hole on the vertical surface which had the radio remote control mounted in it.  That remote also did not work so now that the hole is filled we can finish it off with gelcoat.
