    Anyone get a VesselView for their Merc?

    Reports i've read seem good. I dont have Smartcraft. Looks kinda like a no brainer?

    I was curious about these too. Is this the module that will connect to your phone app?

    There are 3 versions on VV.

    1. A stand alone box similar to a Lowrance HDS.
    2. VV Link that displays info on your Lowrance HDS screen.
    3. VV Mobile that displays info on your phone.

    Well, got it, needed the yellow resistor that my motor didnt have....Got one from European Marine (super fast and easy btw).
    Worked pretty easy.
    Downloaded the app to my phone. Synced my motor and immediately started getting data.
    Course it let me know i have some fault codes but useful to me, motor temp, water pressure, rpm, volts, i guess mph but i dont really care...
    good investment i think.

    Looks like a neat thing to have.

    What was the total cost?
