RE: Autopilot or Wheel pilot?

cap, It depends on what type of cruising you plan to do and where. If it will be weekend and occasional longer trips in mostly protected waters, a wheel pilot will do fine. If you plan on long distance and serious cruising, you will get caught out in unpleasant conditions from time to time, you will want a below decks pilot attached to your hydraulics. I highly recommend the Simrad AP24. Chuck
