Merc monitor gauge

[rangerranger]

My boat doesn’t have the Merc monitor gauge. I’m considering getting it networked into my graphs. I’ve also considered looking into getting it to replace one of my gauges but that probably is pretty expensive. Would one of you who has the Merc monitor gauge in your boat mind posting a picture?
Thanks

If you have Lowrance (Vessel View Link) or Garmin (Garmin Gateway), there are some great options without having a Mercmonitor. Humminbird is a bit more limited but still decent though. A Mercmonitor is great no matter that brand. A Mercmonitor will run you approximately $800 without installation.

Here is my MM on my Basscat.

Or get Vessel View and use your phone.

That would be Vessel View MOBILE.

Honestly I was going to get vesselview link for my 1980 to intergrate to my lowrance graphs, but then I discovered the vesselview mobile. Shows you everything you need to see right on the phone and only costs like 250, while the vesselview link costs almost 1200 bucks. Sure the mobile isnt as fancy as having it intergrated into your graphs with the link, but you get the same information.

I had my dealer do the speedo & tach delete when I ordered my 2080... they put in a stereo in one hole and the MercMonitor in the other. It costs $400 a year ago.... since then I added the Garmin NMEA2000 starter kit and ran it to both my graphs with the NMEA cables.... and added SteadyCast to the backbone too..... I don't really use it like I thought I would...

Does anyone have a picture of the Merc monitor gauge that was ordered with their Vexus? I think it may be different than the Merc Monitor I had n previous boats (similar to the bass cat pic above.)
What info does the Vexus Merc Monitor display?
Thanks

You do get the same basic information but none of the advance options. I have bought and installed plenty of them. The VV Link and Mercmonitor both run about $750-800 for parts. It takes 1-1.5 hours to install.

ALL current-production Mercmonitors are the same externally and do not vary between boat brands. They are a Mercury product. The bezel color is about the only difference anyone can change.

Looks great! Get the chrome bezel and it will match the other gauges.

When I bought my Phoenix 819, I had the dash panel swapped out for the "small gage panel". The MercMonitor fit perfectly in the Speedo spot.
