Well I am trying to get my boat in tip top I just got it this spring and I am doing a few mods to it. I had a speedometer on the boat when I got it but the pickup was broke and there was no tubing to the gauge. So I bought a brand new speedometer today and put it on. I pulled out all the old screws and replasced with the new ones that came with the kit all new tube clips new tube and new head. so it's all mounted were the old one was same place. now my problem is that I have no reading so I puled the gauge at the lake and I can get water to come up out but not at speed. just air once the boat is on plain. so I know that it's not in the water but it is mounted in the same place as the old one. so do they make a longer ? Am I going to have to move it down under my boat? this is a fiberglass bass boat and the bottom is notched back in on the bottom probably 6"back in and is about 3" up. my live well pickups are mounted on the top of that step and the two live and one boat drains are mounted to the face I just don't want to be putting holes in the boat that don't have to be there so Any help would be great thanks Robert
