Smartcraft guages

[H20Advantage]

Anyone have any knowledge or experience with the Mercury Smartcraft guages and DTS throttle system?? Pros or Cons. Maybe looking at installing them on the new boat.

Check with Boatfloating (Rocky). He has them on his new boat, and had them on his old boat.

Go to Livorsi (http://www.livorsi.com/) for some more information and also go to Smartcraft web site (http://www.mercurymarine.com/smartcraft).

Phebus is correct. I have had them on both boats and love them. They give you all the info you'll every need or want to know.....

Rocky,
Do the guages on the right side there in your picture do the same thing as the ones on your dash?

Rocky,

Yes, rpm, speed, water press, water temp, oil press (if I needed that since I have wacka's).
What I do is monitor water temp on the screens on the right. On the screens on the Tachs I monitor trim and water pressure split display for each motor. The screen on the speedo I can motor rpm sync or trim sync. This way I can make sure both motors are synced with each other. Really cool stuff.

The guy who did my bezels and battery boxes and other billet stuff is a Get Real Performance (http://getrealperformance.com/) Roy does some trick stuff...... And he can custom make stuff too like my bezels and other things.
