2004 15 HP two stroke, can I add trim?

[Mischief Managed]

I'm converting my tiller-steer 2 stroke to: remote steer, remote throttle/shift and electric start so that I can use it with a Euro-helm on the new 11 foot aluminum RIB dinghy I am purchasing. Is there a way to add hydraulic trim/tilt to this motor?

Also, can I add a tachometer and temperature gauge to this motor?

You can certainly get a tachometer for it. Even if it’s the small tiny tach digital type. Not sure about trim or if it’s even worth it. You can manually adjust it, as you’ll know.

If you want trim, a the small version CMC TnT or Panther TnT will work.

Don't know TnT is worth it for an 11 ft. dinghy.

The more I research this the more I realize that OEM hydraulic trim was never an option on the 2 stroke, only the 4 stroke. Guessing the inherent low end torque of a 2 stroke (compared to a 4 stroke) precluded it. Will live with manual trim.

I also found that there is a module I can add for a tach, but I probably won't bother, I think I can check WOT RPM with the frequency option on my DMM and a little math.

Thank you for your responses. Should be a fun project putting together a snappy, lightweight, little RIB for exploring in relative comfort while my main boat is anchored in interesting places. We are hoping to be able to travel 5 to 10 miles up little tributaries and such on the east coast, in it. We dd some exploration like that already aboard our air bottom Zodiac and it was fun, but that boat is exhausting after an hour or so. It's also a very wet ride.
