I currently have a Honda 90hp on a 19' aluminum boat and am considering changing to a Mercury 115 Pro XS. I currently have Faria gauges which are less than a year old, I have checked with Faria and they will work with the Mercury. I want to use them so I do not have to fill in the holes in the dash, the only two connected to the motor are the tach with hour meter and trim gauge. I assume I will need to change out the binnacle control and key switch, I would also like to have the ability to display the engine info on a MFD, currently I have a Lowrance HDS-7. My plan is to derig my Honda and all wiring and controls, install the new Mercury harness, binnacle and key switch and then have the dealer just bolt the motor on and connect it up. I also want everything in a rigging tube, I have hydraulic steering which I will be reusing.
How can I determine what parts I need, I have looked and I could not find a Mercury rigging guide. Thanks for any info.
