 Autopilots
Autopilots are electronic devices which take over the task of steering your boat. They give you the freedom to read charts and instruments, plot courses, or just enjoy lunch! Once considered a luxury, the autopilot has now become standard kit on any seagoing yacht and recent technological advances have made autopilots more practical and more affordable. The type of Autopilot you require will depend on what type of vessel you have; it’s size, and steering arrangements. Applications are available for both wheel and tiller.
