ABSTRACT:
A number of embodiments of watercraft speed detecting devices embodying a dynamic semiconductor pressure sensor that has high accuracies at most speed ranges and another speed sensor that has a higher degree of accuracy than the semiconductor pressure sensor at a certain range and that speed is displayed at that certain range. The other speed sensor may be of a wide variety of types such as a magnetic current meter, a propeller type speed sensor, or a tachometer that is driven by the engine and associated circuitry for calculating watercraft speed from engine speed.
