Does anyone use this? How do you like it? Eventually I want to put a MFD in but till then I am thinking about a panel mounted iPad and the vessel view. To my understanding it will give me all the engine instruments, some how fuel quantity, speed, etc. is this what I’m thinking it is or am I off?
thanks y’all

Have not tested it with the engine running yet but I think it will be perfect. I can get all the fault codes in the VesselView application and much more data like the engine instruments, fuel, speed, rpm etc.
Here is a picture of my panel on my Chris Craft 260 Stinger I finished last week.

I have it and it works great. The fuel quantity from the way I understand it so far is a calculation. If you put 10 gallons in then you tell vessel view you put 10 gallons in and it will calculate what you have left by the fuel flow. Seems to be working so far. Thinking I need the gateway to my simrad to make the fuel quantity work. The panel is crazy simple now. I had gauges all over the place before.

I would much rather have the vessel view link but from what I'm told it wont work with my simrad NSE 12 I guess its to old. So I got the vessel view mobile to get the detailed info from the motors. I will probably get it in the future though when I upgrade simrads. Thanks though for the info.

im in the process of going digital on my gauges .I have a 34 Fountain with triple 300xs at the moment on simrads. I purchased the gateway ( not knowing any better) but have read that the vessel view link is way better The gateway seems very generic and plain.. any advice is appreciated.. also where is the best place to purchase the vessel view link multi engine from?? thanks
