Hi,

Has anybody had any experience with the Simrad WP30 Wheelpilot. I have a
Jeanneau Sun
Legende 41 that according to the spec is right at the high end. Now I am not
planning to rely on it to cross an ocean but it is a lot cheaper than the
ST5000 Sailpilot from Raymarine which seems the only alternative. Has anyone
had experience with this autopilot or any good advice on the subject.

My cruising area at present is Puerto Rico/Virgin islands etc.

Cheers,

Mike

I have one, buy it. You will be very happy with the Simrad Wp30, I am. They
are simple to install, use little power, are easy to operate and have plenty
of power for the rough conditions.
