Navico Autopilot with Raymarine Linear Drive

[so40gtb]

Voyageur has turn-of-the century Raymarine electronics and ST6000 autopilot. I'm thinking of replacing the latter with a B&G (aka Simrad) controller, from Navico. The question is whether he Raymarine linear drive actuator, connected to the steering quadrant, is compatible with the Navico controller. Has anyone been down this road?

I wonder if your ST6000 being "turn-of-the century" is a reason for an upgrade

However I like the integration between my e7's and the RM AP and for that reason I would understand your upgrade desire given that you have installed a B&G MFD
