Performing a bit of preseason work on my 2005 AR230. I pulled the panel of gages off the dash and behind the speedometer I found what appears to be a calibration dial. I haven’t seen any posts on that here so I thought I’d share a pic. My speedometer works fine, just off 20% or so.

Have you tried your hand at trying to get it to read more accurately, or does that have to wait for warmer weather?

That is interesting. Does your boat have a paddlewheel?

I will have to look at mine. However, just for information, as my speedo is nearly dead accurate.
