Smartcraft tach on my pontoon boat , mercury smartcraft 2021 115 CT 4 stroke.
You can't hardly see the lcd display and I just replaced this display about a month ago. I have another display coming for one more try.
Contrast and brightness have been adjusted to no avail. All functions work.
This was an install I did about 3 years ago with the '05 mercury 60 hp big foot..
just wondering if I've missed something and maybe someone had a similar problem...

Viewing displays in an open boat (sunlight) is always an issue.

Back lighting, special anti glare screen coatings, etc. improve visibility but don’t resolve it.

I suspect the SC displays are not designed with full sunlight viewing in mind
