Dash Fab analog to Digital

View attachment 87965 True the age of my boat is a factor however both engines being replaced with only 10 hrs on them and the addition of a bow thruster not to mention a meticulous maintenance schedule Puts my boat on par with alot of newer boats that have alot more hours on my lake. True this is better suited for ocean going people but this is a touch screen I can also monitor a lot more things than standard guages allow fuel consumption fuel pressures etc. I opted for the chetco based on reviews and aesthetics, just personal preference I wanted the look of a modern dash vs busy bunch of round gauges

ill post a pic of both panels together to give you an idea of the location etc.

Where did you source the steering wheel? I found it at go2marine.com, and possibly some local companies that are listed as distributors of Schmitt, but I will call them on Monday. But I was not able to find a listing for the Sea Ray center cap.
 
Interesting,
while i have no personal experience, a couple of my friends have ordered from him without issue.
I have no affiliation and was only trying to help.

What have you heard? Can you share a link of an example of a bad situation?

Edit:
Seems to have 100% sellers rating on Ebay fwiw

If memory serves, this particular seller has generated a fair amount of controversy in the past. Suggest you do a search before ordering.

I have ordered from him a few times without issue.. it’s pretty hard to have 100% satisfaction when you generate a fair amount of controversy

Sorry, other than recalling the seller’s name in a negative context I don’t have anything specific. That’s why I suggested more research might be in order.

before throwing a guy under the bus with no proof what so ever except memory of a negative context ....is a low blow at best. Especially when all you have is eBay ratings.... a thousand of them

Hi Lake Luv Kentucky - Having grown up in a boat yard and working with fiberglass/gel coat my whole life. I am nothing short of impressed to the point of being in awe of what you did. Simply fantastic!

I would like to hear of what you think about the G2, I have a thread over at THT on the G2 and have had one since 2016/17. I have often thought of going with a screen like you have, but instead went with GMI20's and DSM410's. I went with the smaller displays because of more data then just the engines can be displayed.

Anyway, great job - I would be extremely proud of your work. Never under estimate what can be achieved in the garage!

I love the sea gauge so far unfortunately I didn’t get much use as winter set in before I got alot of lake time but functionally its awesome

Just wondering, Why did you do such a steep angle? It looks great, but it looks like it could fit using the same angle as the other GPS and still fit.

Actually it had to be tilted as there isnt enough room to set it straight up and down. Believe me its like fitting 10 pounds of poo in a 5 pound bag! I could have got a smaller display but I like the updated look and if bigger wasn’t better they wouldn’t make it lol:)
