The price is right and there is nothing wrong with an autopilot that just holds a straight course. I know it worked when in your friend's boat, but it would be a real pisser to instal it in yours and find it doesn't work for whatever reason. Definitely check compatibilty of pump and cylinder. I suggest you then mount the components on a piece of plywood (to represent the boat), and power it up. See if the pump and other bits try to do what they should when the board (boat) changes heading. Good luck.
