    Vessel View Mobile "permanent" solution

    Does Mercury offer a small screen that can pair via bluetooth to the vessel view mobile module? then only power would need to be ran to it. Just thinking this would be a quick, handy way to do this without running all the wiring from motor to console. Otherwise I am thinking I could use an old deactivated phone plugged into a charger?

    vessel view Mobil does not need any wiring, plugs directly into the connector near the computer then pairs to phone that is on line
    Deactivated phone wont work
    Thank You Leon Pugh

    I am aware. I am saying does Mercury have a screen that connects via bluetooth to the module plugged into the motor? Seems like this would be the way to go instead of all of the traditional wiring associated with SC 1000 gauges and other non bluetooth smartcraft products.

    Something instead of using a cell phone. Vessel View mobile works when my phone is on airplane mode to view engine data so I am not sure why a deactivated phone wouldn't work?

    Not the mobile version.

    Vessel View MOBILE is designed to be used with a Smartphone or Tablet, via Bluetooth.

    Mercury's "screen available" versions are in the Vessel View LINK, 403, 703, 903, etc. And in those, you're almost wise to consider a compatible Graph, paired to the Vessel View LINK.

    I had new console graphs installed on my Triton the only mounting bracket they had to use blocks out all my smart craft gauges!
    There is no adjustment to view the gauges. Access is ok in the garage but difficult on the water. Can I add a Mercury Vessel View if I already have SmartCraft?

    All carbons on the console but the trouble is the bracket it covers the window to read the gauges. The bracket is not adjustable.

    Use VesselView LINK and you'll have dual Vesselview Units right there on the console.
