Mercury – Helm Harness (Single Helm, Single Outboard) | Rigging Accessory | 84-8M0208440

Overview
This harness is made for small boats that run a single outboard and a single helm. It already includes the Geneva display plug and a VesselView Connect connector, so everything ties into the system without hunting for extra adapters. Because it’s sized for tighter consoles, it routes a lot easier than the larger harnesses. Once installed, your engine info shows up cleanly on the display, and the whole helm feels a lot more organized.

Performance & Practical Benefits
Because the harness is small and already set up with the right connectors, it keeps the rigging behind the console from turning into a jumble. You get clean data flow to the display, fewer loose wires to chase, and less frustration when you need to access the helm later. It’s a simple piece that keeps the whole boat feeling tidier.

Why Buy OEM
OEM wiring avoids the mystery connectors and mismatched pins that come with cheap copies. It lasts longer, holds up to vibration and moisture, and keeps the SmartCraft network from acting up.
