On some engines I believe it comes from a fly wheel sensor. On others it comes from the alternator. If the boat is wired with an external regulator that shuts off the alternator when at full charge in that set up the tach will not function  when the batteries are fully charged(chartered a boat with that problem once if I remember correctly)
