Default Auto Pilot for trolling


"Art Yokell" wrote ...

We have a 30' grady which we use mostly for fishing. We had installed a C
series Raymarine GPS, Fish Finder and a 4' open array radar. I had hoped to
install a decent auto pilot this winter. I am getting a bunch of jazz from Ray
and a reccomendation for a $4,000 system plus the cost of install. I find out
that this system is not reccomended for slow speeds nd doesn't have any
predetermined trolling patterns as part of the system. I wonder if anyone here
might have an alternate suggestion that will work and not be so outrageously
expensive. Thanks for any ideas.


I use a Nautamatic TR-1 gold on the kicker and it works pretty well. It runs
about $2300 if I recall correctly. It has a zig-zag pattern but I've never tried
it.
