Protect Your Boat’s Yamaha or Suzuki Digital Gauges from Heat, UV, Salt, and Wear with the Best Covers on the Market

Yamaha 6Y5 and 6Y8 digital multifunction gauges and similar 4” gauges are in use on tens of thousands of outboard-powered boats across the U.S. and around the world. Over time, if they aren’t protected from heat, UV radiation, and physical wear, they slowly deteriorate until they’re no longer readable. Their lenses can become clouded or crazed, their polarizing film can fade, and their LCDs can leak.

In many cases, the gauges can be restored, but sometimes replacement is the only option. Either way, the expense is significant — around $75 each for restoration and $240 to $300 for replacement.

An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth a Pound of Cure

Of course, there’s a simple way to avoid repair or replacement: just keep your gauges covered when not in use. Until now, though, the only good ways to do that have been to store your boat out of the elements or use a quality boat cover — both costly and not always feasible.

Kennedy Gauge Covers — designed and sold by the same Florida-based company behind Kennedy Tie Downs — are a convenient and inexpensive solution to that problem. They are also superior in several ways to competitive products. Our covers are:
