I am the new owner of a mid 70's Vanguard Gemini 16 with a mid 70's Merc 85.
Have never owned a boat with a speedometer so not sure what the problem may be.
The speedometer was reading fine on one trip, then a few hours later no reading at all.
The pitot that is mounted on the transom, how far into the water does it have to sit?
I see it has a hole in it and must get its pressure reading through this.
It does hinge up so that I am guessing doesn't get damaged,
do I need to make sure it is pointed all the way down?
Thanks for any help you can give.
