Autopilot Install

Post by jon »

Recently I contacted Raymarine to inquire about installing an autopilot.
The technician recommended their newest system, the EV-200. Has anyone
had the pleasure of installing this system on their 350? I'm open to installing
an older system like the 5000 or 6000 to be budget friendly, but I'm unsure
if I could find one for sale.

I installed an Evolution 200 Sail autopilot this spring in hull 158. I replaced a Raymarine ST5000+. I reused the linear actuator and rudder transducer. I integrated ST 60 depth, wind and speed instruments. I also intigated an old Standard Horizon CP 180 GPS. The installation was straight forward and I am very satisfied with the results. Its a much better autopilot. I would do it again. If you have further question send me a PM.

Thanks! I'm planning to spend money on a new sail
at this point. However I eventually plan to install the AP
and will get in touch with you then.
Thanks again
