Bayliner 2452 New Instrumentation-gctid825924

[mr.bent]

A little upgrade of the instruments, anything i forgot?

I am mounting a Garmin Striker 7 SV under the cockpit roof, not completed yet.

All the power needed for running the boat is connected in one fusebox, and all other stuff on a bigger fusebox, connected to the front battery.

The VHF is connected to both fuseboxes but only one fuse installed, this to be able to move the fuse and use VHF in an emergency situation.

Installed hydraulic steering as well.

The switch in upper left corner is for a remote controlled main switch on the front battery.

I added 2 extra Temp. Gauges to see the Exhaust temp.

Bennet Marine Autotrim, works real sweet.

Almost done, just miss some leds for low/high fuel level.

Outstanding work! I replaced my dash panel with an exact replacement which looks great, but now I wish I would have gone your route and integrated the GPS in-dash.

Looks great, glad to see another 2452 with extended dash panel fully covering the fiberglass area, that's exactly what I did on my previous boat.

I also have another temp sensor, but it shows the oil temperature.

What sensor are you using to get the exhaust temp, and where did you install it?

Looks real nice bent, you've done another fantastic job!

[mr.bent]

Fishaman thank you, I used temp sensors from a outboard and mounted them in the existing screwholes on the exhaust elbow, had to make a small bracket to get good contact.

Builderdude, you started all this, I got most of my inspiration and courage by watching your jobs, thank you

Thanks bent but I can't take any credit, it was previous and current BOC threads that inspired me to do the things I've done. It's a very informative group we have here, also the reason I stumbled upon this site to begin with.

Looking to do something with my Trophy instrumentation. What is the material you used? Looks great!

[mr.bent]

It's some carbon look alike which you can buy in most shops that works with sun screens for cars.
