Anyone need some 270 stock gauges? Everything works great except the tach, it just started to stick at the end of the season. Make me an offer. Located in KY

its a Raymarine ES78, got it on sale from West Marine with a transducer for $399

Nice. I take it you put a gateway on your engine to get the information.

yeah I did the CAN cable with the smartcraft gateway that converts it to a NMEA2k network, then plugged that into the MFD. Bought a harness for the fuel tank level, so I have trim, fuel level, everything from the old dash and more. I gotta finish mounting my transducer so I'll have depth, temp and sonar fish finder.

Looks great!  What are you using for the new dash plate that you mounted the screen to?  I have Merc Vessel View, debating a gauge replacement as well.  Nice work!

Currently just a piece of 1/4” wood that’s stained. I’m thinking of using black star board this winter and making a new one
