Speedometer Calibration

The speedometer calibration control knob is located on the under side of the deck beneath the dash pod above the driver’s right knee. Drive the boat at a known speed using a GPS or measured course and adjust the knob until the speedometer is reading correctly. Turning the knob one direction will raise the needle reading while turning it in the other direction will lower the reading.

Control Switches

Each electrical circuit on your boat is equipped with a control switch. The switches have an indicator light for easy ON/OFF identification. All switches are fuse protected.
