Faria depth gauge1/5/2023 ![]() I'm a bit frustrated with crappy weather we have been getting, so motivation is a little under the weather. ![]() FARIA DEPTH GAUGE INSTALLWell I've been spending nights after work to slowly install this sucker. Has anyone installed one of these on an older direct drive ski boat? What did you do, how did it work out?Īnother thought was the hull of the boat should be the same temp as the uld I epoxy down the water temp sensor to the hull and cover with some insulation? So I'm thinking that location would require the least amount of drilling.but how do you access that speedo tube hole? Do I have to pull the gas tank out to gain access? Or pull the side flooring up? Will I have to enlarge that hole to accommodate the speedo tube & sensor wire? But maybe it will not make much of a difference. I figure that water temp will be a little skewed as the exhaust / water outlet is right there. But the big question is where to mount the water temp sensor.? I've read about people using the speedo tube hole to run the sensor wire and mounting the the transom. The air temp sensor I am going to mount under the dash. I'll have to tinker with it out in the water to make sure it reads accurate. ![]() The depth gauge transistor is the transom mount kind, but I am going to epoxy it to the hull (probably somewhere close to the packing box, or maybe rudder). ![]() I have a 1995 2000SLM Comp boat for reference. Well I've finally decided to add a depth gauge to my old boat, and splurged to get gauge that has the air & water temperature readings as well. ![]()
