Pulled the trigger!!


Recommended Posts

I'll be interested in how you make out with the install and operation of your new Simrad. I have the Ray Sportpilot. It does have it's limits holding course depending on the winds as you know. Ray replaced my Sportpilot 5 years ago without charge. It started to get sloppy because of the wear in the gears. I sent the helm unit back for repairs and a new one showed up 5 days later. It's still holding on but the wear issue is starting to show up on this one also.:sweating:

 

I know your frustration when the AP bombs out :headbang:.  Had a AP for 26 years and I'd be lost without one.

 

Hope you have a good fishing season, especially with your new best friend (Simrad);)

Dad had Simrad ap24 installed last year. Great addition. Found that while trolling with bags, u have to run bags on each side. With only one bag deployed, the pull is too much for the ap to try and compensate to keep course true.
