- Mainship 30 Pilot
Just bought a '02 Mainship 30 with 2017 A series raymarine hooked with 2017 EVO autopilot. works ok at low speed but with any kind of "seaway"j, like 1 foot chop it wanders 5-10 degrees with noticeable snake wake. it is set on cruise mode and is worse on performance mode
I had a Raymarine tech guy come out and redo all the settings. He notice that the installation does not have a mechanical rudder position indicator but said it doesnt need one with new Raymarine setup.
He wants to sell me a new Garmin autopilot.
What to do?
would a manual rudder indicator help?
is it something about the mainship instability?
get a new tech guy?
