I bought one of these for my 9,000 lb Chris Craft. The way I saw it was
that if they rated and advertised it for 10,000 lbs then that answered the question. I ended up not using it though, because on my boat installing it behind the wheel moved the wheel out too close to the fixed position helm seat. Earl David Carrick wrote: Has anyone had experience with a RayMarine Sport Pilot Plus on a 9000 pound modified vee hull ? Steering is quite well balaced at cruising speeds. Have not measured the torque on the wheel but don 't feel I am fighting it. RayMarine would not commit to recommending this product because the design limit is 10000 pounds. They would not say it would not work either which was not much help. There are better solutions for helm mounted cable steered vessels like Cetrek but space for mounting drive unit behind helm is quite limited in depth. Any comments would be helpful. |
