Re: old gauges
I want to begin replacing guages on my 1968 Sea Voyager 42. I don't know if mine are original or not. The tachometer lenses are foggy and are difficult to read from the helm and the hour meters need to be zeroed for my new power. What make did Trojan use in the Sea Voyagers. Also, the fuel guages are not working. One of them works occasionaly in the forward tank position. They are activated by two position switches on the panel. It may be a sending unit issue. What would be the wiring set up for dual tanks?

Re: old gauges
Joe, That tach is not original. The hour meter is digital. They did not have digital back then and the OEM tachs were also cable-driven. A new hour meter will be at zero. The OEM would likely say trojan on them. Not sure who made them. Any photos of the other gauges so I can tell you if they are OEM Trojan or not?
Beacon Marine has some used gauges.
