Finally installed an hour meter on the boat to keep track of the time on her so I can better keep up with maintenance.
Here are some pics.

Looks good! Was there not an hour meter on the boat before?

Thx!
Nope, no hour meter. The boat is a 94 and it looked like it had less than 30 hours on it when we bought it in 2007. So this year I decided to add an Hour meter to keep track of the time I put on it.

Did you think about flush mounting it in the dash? Looks like you have plenty of space there...

Yea that is what I was going to do but there next to the radio is about 2+ inches thick, with the plastic and wood and fiberglass. That made it too thick to mount it. Plus I didn't have the correct size hole saw at the time of install. Might change it over the winter but it seems good for now.

It sounds to be very solidly constructed dashboard ! The space above the radio looks a good place to flush mount a VHF as well should you want to; I wish the later boats had areas like that where things can be mounted.
