How about a windvane in place of an autopilot.

For a small boat a windvane that is not dependent of electricity and is
mure reliable than a autopilot is certainly to be recommended.

Of course a good windwane costs about 10 autopilots.

You need crew.

That would make sailing solo around the world pretty tough.
Realistically,
if you don't have an autopilot I would recommend a drogue.



How about an an autopilot linked to GPS?
Depends... no, this time - where you are going!
