Sweet! Mine learns the characteristics of the boat as well. It also
doesn't really care where center is in a physical sense. You just adjust
it so that it doesn't jam the stops on the position indication sender. In
5-6'+
quartering seas it steered us all the way from St. Augustine to
Port Canaveral without missing a beat. It swings the rudder from stop to
stop in just over 3 seconds. Very responsive in the worst conditions
we have been in.

Sure beats those really sore arms we all had bringing Lionheart up
from Titusville in a hard following sea BY HAND. The old autopilot
stayed with the seller and we had to steer it home in heavy seas.....
