I have contacted the reps at Mercury. They talked to their techs/gurus, and didn't have any idea what is going on. So...they suggested trying on another engine to see if the Vessel View unit itself is malfunctioning. In that case, I'll send it back, and get another...

Your set-up is just like mine. I've not been able to get RPM and fuel usage to work. I'm in contact with reps at Mercury Marine; they're 'escalating' it to the techs/gurus that are most familiar with the software. Fingers crossed...

Just following up. The number that I posted was a line to Tim, at Mercury. If that doesn't work, the main # for Tech Support is: 920-929-5040.

Hi, Bj and Doc, Sorry I'm so slow in getting this contact info to you!! The last number I called was: 920-924-1378, in Fond Du Lac. I don't recall the the extension, but just follow the prompts to get to 'stern drives'...

Hi, Bjdkier, Your set-up is exactly like mine. Unfortunately, RPM and fuel usage are not working for me. One of the reps at Mercury Marine suggested that I delete and re-create my profile to see if that works. Hopefully, you have better luck!

Hi Hi, Doc, Those screw holes that you describe can be used for mounting the device away from the engine, such as near the helm. This would require as cable of suitable length and maybe a junction box, both of which can be ordered from Mercury Marine. It probably would be best to talk to the...

I've installed VesselView on my 2004 Sunesta 252, on my new iPhone and new iPad. Although it looks promising, it is still 'buggy' on both devices. For some reason, it won't show RPM, or fuel burn rate/consumption. I've talked to Jim at Mercury Marine, in Fond du Lac, and after considerable...

Hi, Bt, Would you suspect that could be the same for a 2004 Sunesta 252? If I understand it correctly, is the manufacturer of the Moeller sender also the manufacturer of the tank itself?

cjm, Thanks for the input! I've looked at several videos online, and there is quite a variety of sending units, with variation in the Ohm ranges. Would you happen to have an image of your old sending unit. What yr/model is your Chaparral?

Interesting... I've noticed that my fuel gauge is stuck on full (2004 Sunesta 252). I also have a Faria gauge. My shop advisor said they would replace the gauge AND the sender--for just under $500. Since I intend to use my Vessel View as my go-to indicator of fuel status, this is not a...

2004 Mag350

Hi, Wingnut, Great to hear your input. I've just installed VesselView in my 350Mag. I'm not sure if sea water temp can be viewed on my model, although it comes up as an option for viewing. Your thoughts???

I just installed a VesselView, with help from Arnie, at Mercury Marine customer service. I haven't run it 'live', but it looks promising. It should be much more accurate than the 'analog' gauges that we've been accustomed to using. If it's half as good as I think it is, I would consider it one...

"Fuel is still the cheapest expense we have in boating." SO TRUE!!!

Following up... I'm not sure these parts will be stamped anymore. The access to the inside of the deck where these are attached is visible, but not accessible. Unless, like so many other areas under the deck, you have the size and flexibility of the average Rhesus Monkey! :w00t2:

I think I understand how you approached it; I'm thinking that I'll have to do this in similar fashion. I believe I can cover the screw heads with gelcoat, provided I get just the right amount of depth in the countersink holes. I'm not certain how this will 'bond' to what I believe is a PVC...

Hi, Denny, This came from the Parts Guide. It's that tapering, horizontal piece. It's open on the bottom, for ventilation. I talked to a rep at the company that made these parts, and he told me that there is a threaded nylon 'bolt' that protrudes, passes through the deck, which is secured by a...

Hello, all, I have a loose cover on the port side deck, which I believe is called a 'PORT VENT', Part# 069A, if I'm reading the parts guide correctly. It looks like one of the fasteners broke. Is this something that can be repaired, or should it just be replaced entirely? Thanks in advance, Dan

Hello, all! I checked out that site, but couldn't find anything for my 2004 Sunesta 252. Has anyone tried using a company does automotive wraps?
