Hey.
Has anyone fitted a Raymarine linear drive autopilot to a Sun Oddesy 33i or similar vessel? Thinking about upgrading out SPX wheel pilot to a below deck set-up, but would like to know how easy or difficult it will be in terms of mounting the drive unit etc. If anyone has a similar set-up, advice and /or pictures would be great!
Thanks

Hi spero, Not a Raymarine, but a Jefa, I liked the simple plug and play stand alone system which will fill our needs 99% of the time. It did take some tinkering and I used nuts and bolts as to glassing up a base, better at handling nuts......and bolts. I made some brackets, bolted them to the quadrant for a "direct" drive as the keyway in the rudder stock was not long enough for an off the shelf arm. Cheers
