Does anyone make a temperature gauge that I can add onto my 2006 Optimax 115?

Smartcraft Vessel view or any of the Smartcraft monitors will show water temp.
I believe Vessel View Mobile will work with your motor and will give you water temp and much more right to your phone or tablet. You can install it yourself very easily and it's under $250 depending on where you buy. If you head on over to the Mercury Four Stroke Forum you can get a 10% discount and free shipping purchasing through one of the forum sponsors.

Here is info on the Vessel View device: https://www.mercurymarine.com/en/us/...el-view-mobile
Here is a better Youtube video:
The part number is 8M0157078 for Vessel View Mobile. It is definately the most inexpensive way to get the detailed information you need from your motor without adding any new gauges. Works on any Mercury SmartCraft-capable engine: outboards and sterndrives, 2004 and newer, 40hp and up. I purchased an inexpensive 10" Android tablet ($150) and mounted it above my Garmin to display the Vessel View App.
Good luck!
