RE: Auto Pilots

When I bought my boat it was a project boat at best. I spent three weekends getting it ready to make the 100+ mile trip to a boat yard near my home. It then stayed on the hard for two years going through a major rehab. It had a dual station teleflex type cable steering arrangement but I new I didn't want that. I replaced with hydraulic and installed a Simrad autopilot. It was the best investment in my rehab short of switching from gas to diesel.
