You could get Tiny Tachs. That's what I use. You wind the antenna wire around one of the spark plug wires and it counts sparks. It is EXACTLY accurate to within 5 rpm. Much more accurate than a dial tachometer. You get a digital readout in the cockpit. The standard wire length is too short so you will have to pay $10 extra for a custom length you specify to them. MAKE SURE you get it long enough as you can't lengthen it yourself. I have experimented with the Chinese knockoffs and they are absolutely terrible. They can be accurate when the boat is still. But you just jiggle the tachometer wire on an idling engine, or hit waves running the boat and the indicated rpm goes all over the place. Never had a problem with a Tiny Tach.

I forgot to say that the Tiny Tach includes an hour meter. Engine running shows rpm. Engine stopped shows hours since last reset.
