What guages should EVERY boat have???
I am re-designing my dash and I am wondering if I am missing any guages that I should have?
For each engine I will have
1 water temp
2 water preasure
3 oil preasure
4 oil temp
5 tack
Also I will have Voltage, speedo, fuel.
Am I missing any important ones?

If you are doing a new dash I would put a red light that will come on if something is not right, you might not see low oil psi as fast as you will see the light come on to warn you.

I have the Gaffrig Red Line guages. Some of them do not come as redlines but oil preasure, water temp, fuel level do.
