Is there any way to adjust the intensity of lighting of the instruments when the nav lights are on?

Your question stuck with me and I did a little research because it really is something that boating at night would benefit from. I found an interesting article on just the subject you are questioning that might interest you, it did me.
Here's a link to the article on dimming helm instrumentation:

Here's a link to the dimmer switches mentioned from the West Marine website:

Here's the the Blue Sea system that can be used for either incandescent or LED based instrument panel bulbs. The plus side is the system uses the Carling rocker switches, so it will match the style you already have on your helm panel. Attached is the instruction sheet for the system.

There is not an instrument light dimming control that I know of on any Hurricane models. Not sure if one can be installed.......2012 SD237 I/O Mercruiser 5.0L MPI ECT/ Bravo 32012 Load Rite Elite Tandem axle trailer
