I have twin engines in my MAINSHIP Trawler. Love the access. The 2 Racor's have pressure gauges. But, they are in the engine room. Not too much help under way. I think I have 2 choices. 1) Engine room camara
2) Run the tubing up to the helm stations. (maybe only the fly bridge) I have yet to use the lower station.
The camera seems the easier of the 2. Can you read the gauges using an ER camera? What about vibrations? Running the tubing seems to be a pretty big job.
What have you guys done? Now I have to start the engines and get into the engine room and read them. I guess if you check it once a month, you probably have it covered?
