Autopilot
Just read this thread, and have one comment: my experience w/ auto pilots is
that the flux gate compass must be a good distance away from an outboard
motor. 5ft, 6ft even. I've got some real stories about this.

I have written about autopilots here before, but just to bring you up to
day, I now carry 3 tiller pilots. I had an instance 2 or 3 years ago
where
both of the 2 then on board went out. A short while after that I
cracked a part of the windvane self-steerer.
So now it's 3 tiller pilots and the repaired Navik. Hmmmmm.
How do they attach to the tiller? Do any of them attach to a wheel?
Do you think any of them might be adaptable to my situation?
Thanks,
