Sierra 59706P Sahara 2 Inch Water Temperature Gauge for IB/IO Engines

The Sierra 59706P is a 2 inch Sahara series water temperature gauge built for inboard and stern drive (IB/IO) marine engines. The Sahara line is designed to give the dash a factory, elegant OEM look while offering full night readability through combined red through-dial and white perimeter lighting. The tan dial is finished with black graduations and black numerals, and the black pointer carries a fire-orange tip for quick, at-a-glance visibility on the water.

The gauge face is protected by a scratch resistant curved glass lens, set into a black matte, near-flush bezel for a clean, low-profile mount. The 59706P mounts using an NPT thread fitting and is an electromechanical gauge, not a digital display. It is designed to read as a genuine, correct-fit replacement rather than a generic look-alike, matching the OEM appearance expected on IB/IO dashboards. This gauge is also offered as part of a matched Sahara instrument set for IB/IO applications with tachometer and hour meter, alongside companion gauges 69743P, 59704P, 59707P, 59708P, 59705P, and 69704P, so a full dash can be upgraded with consistent styling and lighting.
