Moved My Autopilot to Within Easy Reach

[usmm1234]

The last original thing left on my Boat was the Robertson AP11 Autopilot. Every time I wanted to make an adjustment. I had to stand up out of my chair. The original Dealer installed it up on the Electronics box in the hardtop. The 20 year old unit started acting up, so I bought a new one That’s NEMA2000. A Simrad AP44. I had long done away with the stereo remote on the helm. I put the stereo up in the electronics box in the hardtop, and put the remote down in the cabin. We like that much better. Then I moved the autopilot down to the helm. It is so much nicer!

perfect. Mine is next to the wheel also. Like you say, don't have to leave the chair when trolling. In fact, I pretty much drive with the AP buttons.
