I use the Trail Tech TTO hour meter / tach on the little boat. Neat unit that has max RPm recall.
I wonder if one of these multi function displays could be used with my carbed 200 Merc in the new Paramount?

I like the looks and the functionality seems like they have most everything covered. I hope they can make one function with outboard technology. Maybe we should all blow up their support email asking what can be done for us?

I have one on my ktm. It has a sensor that is programed to read from the brake rotor for speed. Works well on the bike but you would need one with a gps pick up for a boat.

I have a trail tech as well on my kdx200 , tach reads double or more of actual, tried resistor plug and settings are all correct, neat little unit for 100$, even gets engine temp. Mine was the same with a magnet epoxied to the rotor

I shot them an email when I read this post yesterday and woke this morning to an email from them.

"Scott, We do not make any specific outboard marine kits. We could probably get a kit together for you though. But it will be very involved with running extensions for the sensors and insulating some wire for protection. I would need to know total length from your engine to the cockpit and the thread size of your spark plug for the CHT sensor. And what type of gauge you where after.

Thank you,

Looks like they are willing to make something if someone really wanted to try it.
