Default Which tiller pilot?

I am currently looking at tiller pilots for a 27 footer, and am
deciding between the Simrad TP10 and Raymarine ST1000+
Tiller Pilot A12004.

What I found on them says that both are not really waterproof,
the TP10 is said to be faster and stronger, but lacks interfaces
to other navigation electronics. Both are made by subsidiaries
of weapon manufacturers.

As they seem both equally bad in water resistance and pedigree,
I am leaning towards the TP10. I am not planning to connect it to
other gadgets, I like the "faster and stronger" promise, and hope
that Scandinavian maritime engineering for the professional fishing
fleet beats American for recreational boating.

Am I missing other important points here, or are there other
products I should consider?


Thanks!
