Performance & Practical Benefits

It’s perfect for upgrading or replacing an existing display while keeping your current VesselView Link hardware intact.

Why Buy OEM

Mercury built this display to pair seamlessly with its SmartCraft network. That means no lag, no translation errors, and no guessing about fit or function. The housing is sealed against water and salt, and it’s backed by Mercury’s dealer network for support you can count on. When you go OEM, you get a display that just works — the way Mercury intended.

FAQ

Q1: Is this a full kit?
No — this is the display only, for use with an existing VesselView Link module and SmartCraft network.

Q2: How many engines will it support?
It works with any SmartCraft setup from one to four engines.

Q3: Can it be used in saltwater?
Yes — it’s fully sealed and corrosion-resistant for marine conditions.

Q4: What if I don’t have a VesselView Link system yet?
You’ll need a complete VesselView 703 Kit with the Link module and harnessing.

If your SmartCraft wiring’s already in place, it’s plug-and-play. Otherwise, a Mercury dealer can install and configure it quickly.
