Pitot vs. Paddlewheel

[jshepp122]

My factory speedo's are flipping out and was looking into replacing the original pitot and tubing. I came across the paddlewheels and was thinking about changing to a paddlewheel. My question is if I go with the paddlewheel will that work with factory gauges or would I need to replace those? I was looking into the Faria Chesapeake white gauges that are the pitot style, or should I keep the pitot style and just replace them? My lake is not the cleanest, its seaweed and muck and was thinking the paddlewheel would be a better replacement for the conditions.

you would have to install the paddle wheel, harness and replace the gauge with a electronic guage. alot of work compared to cleaning out your pitots. For a couple extra hundred you could install a Star Gazer PP and be done with it.
