Faria Chesepeake Black 4" Studded Speedometer - 60MPH (GPS)

The Faria Chesapeake Black 4" Studded Speedometer – 60MPH (GPS) is a modern replacement instrument designed for marine vessels and tactical watercraft that demand accurate real-time speed monitoring. Built by Faria Beede Instruments, a trusted manufacturer in marine instrumentation, this GPS-enabled speedometer serves operators who require reliable velocity data without the complexity of external antenna systems. Whether deployed on law enforcement patrol boats, military watercraft, or high-performance marine platforms, this speedometer provides the precision necessary for mission-critical navigation and speed regulation.

This unit leverages integrated GPS technology with an internal antenna—eliminating the need for external mounting hardware that could compromise vessel profile or stealth characteristics. The 4-inch dial face features a studded black bezel design that integrates seamlessly into existing Faria instrument clusters while delivering a maximum readout of 60 MPH, suitable for tactical response and patrol operations. The drop-in replacement design means minimal dashboard modification; the GPS module automatically gathers positional data and converts it to accurate speed readings independent of hull-mounted transducers, reducing installation complexity and potential points of failure in field conditions.

Operators of marine law enforcement platforms, military riverine craft, and civilian tactical watercraft benefit most from this instrument's reliability and precision. The GPS-based methodology eliminates calibration drift common to mechanical speedometers, ensuring consistent performance across varying water conditions and hull configurations. Installation is straightforward—mounting directly into standard 4-inch instrument panels with no external antenna routing required. Compatibility spans any vessel already equipped with Faria Beede instrumentation clusters, making this a practical upgrade for fleets seeking to modernize speed monitoring without complete dashboard replacement.
