System
Your boat might be equipped with Mercury Marine’s
SmartCraft Vessel View boat and engine information
system. The Vessel View color LCD display is located
on the control console, directly above the steering
wheel. The Vessel View system powers up when the
engine main ignition key switch is turned to the ON
position.
The Vessel View system is a comprehensive boat and
engine information center that continuously monitors
and reports detailed information about your boat, your
engine, and your boating environment. Your Vessel
View system is networked with the boat’s GPS to pro-
vide detailed operational information such as naviga-
tion, speed over ground, and fuel to destination.
Your Vessel View system has a user-friendly interface
that is controlled by seven buttons and a track pad.
These controls allow you to calibrate and control all of
the information reports and formats.
The Vessel View information reports are grouped into
four categories.
1

mation
2
Vessel includes information about fuel use,
tank levels, generators, and air conditioning

The Vessel View system reports warnings using five
levels of graphical icons. The icons change appear-
ance as the warnings become more critical.

ual in your owner’s bag for detailed information about
the setup and operation of this important system.
