    Autopilot options for 1982 IG32?

    Romeo to that. Here's one photo I found. I'll have to do the video and upload it this week. The motor pod is positioned at 10 o'clock and luckily, most of the clearances worked. Except for the lock pin which holds the unit solid. I just had to purchase a cylinder of hard plastic to act as a...

    Autopilot options for 1982 IG32?

    I'll take some pics and post them here tonight to show the install. I've been meaning to do a quick video and post it on YouTube, as I couldn't find any when I was researching it (I must get on to that). I spoke with the tech support at Raymarine prior to purchasing the kit and they said they...

    shore power/batteries

    On my IG 32, when my selector is on "shore power", the power goes through to my battery charger unit, which then charges all batteries connected to it. My understanding of the selector switch is just as Comodave says. My "start" battery is #2 and when I'm on a trip and get to my destination, I...

    Pilot Sorted Hi all, I ended up going with the Raymarine EV1 wheel pilot. It was very easy to DIY install and I'm very happy with the way it works. I'm also happy I had to make zero changes to the steering system on the boat. All up, under $3k AUD. Thanks for the input guys ⚓️?.

    Anyone by chance know the displacement of the IG32 in full cruise trim (fuel / water)?

    Autopilot options for 1982 IG32?

    Thanks Mike - I was looking at theirs and yes, I believe it came to about 8+k AUD for all the bits. Good bit of kit though. ? TWedd's option is 2.2k USD delivered to Oz. Basic looking, but I'm reading about it now.

    Autopilot options for 1982 IG32?

    Howdy TF'ers, I'm looking into the option of installing an autopilot onto my IG32. I don't really want to go through changing my cable steering over to hydraulic, as that is all that I have been told to do so far. I would then have to glass in a mounting point for the ram and route in...
