Faria Chesapeake Black SS Boxed Set - Inboard Motors

The Faria Chesapeake Black Stainless Steel Boxed Set for Inboard Motors is a complete six-gauge instrument package designed for marine vessels equipped with inboard propulsion systems. This ready-to-install boxed set combines precision analog instrumentation with corrosion-resistant construction, making it ideal for saltwater and freshwater boating applications where reliability and legibility under varied lighting conditions are essential.

The set features perimeter-lighted black dials with contrasting blue and white graphics for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions typical of dawn patrols or night operations on the water. Each gauge employs a polished stainless steel bezel and domed glass lens, protecting the mechanical and electromechanical movements from spray and UV exposure. The contoured white pointer design minimizes parallax error when reading from off-axis viewing angles. The complete Inboard Motors package includes a 60 MPH mechanical speedometer, 6000 RPM tachometer, fuel level indicator, water temperature gauge, voltmeter, and oil pressure gauge—all matched in styling and calibration for seamless integration into the helm station.

This boxed set is intended for marine operators managing performance-critical inboard systems, including commercial fishing vessels, patrol craft, and recreational boats where continuous monitoring of engine parameters is necessary for safety and efficiency. The mechanical speedometer operates independently of electronic systems, providing redundant speed readout when digital instrumentation may fail. The inclusion of fuel level, water temperature, oil pressure, and voltmeter gauges ensures operators can detect system anomalies before they develop into operational hazards. Pre-assembled and factory-tested, the set arrives ready for helm panel installation.

Faria Beede Instruments has manufactured marine instrumentation since 1929, establishing a reputation for accuracy and durability in saltwater service. The Chesapeake Black Stainless Steel line represents the brand's mid-range offering—balancing corrosion resistance and visual legibility at a price point accessible to professional and serious recreational operators without the premium cost of full digital glass helm systems.
