1992 Rinker 300 Hour Meter Location

I recently bought a very used Fiesta Vee 300. I cannot find the Mercruiser 5.7 hour meters. A previous Rinker owner suggested they are behind a panel somewhere. Anybody out there have any ideas?

No hour meter on that year boat unless the previous owner(s) added one. Some ignition modules can be read to get the hours. I believe the Merc Thunderbolt 5 can be read.

Thanks Cableguy! I highly doubt any modifications have been done to this boat so I'll just run her and assume there are a LOT of hours.

Found them! On the outside of the dual battery switch assembly. Not very visible but I can stick my head in there to see them.
