The tachometer (rpm gauge) attaches to the coil. The red wire in the picture is the wire from the tachometer.

The boat was like this when I bought it. I didn't actually run the wire so I don't know if it's direct or from the harness. There's no reason why you couldn't run the wire directly from the tachometer to the coil if that's easier.
