Lloyd -- from a previous life as an installer, I can still source electronics at pretty good prices; for instance, I can get the Raymarine E12199 SmartPilot X-30 Corepack for under $1900, and the E22166 P70 Autopilot Control Head for under $450. Shop around and check pricing; if you'd like to order through me, please let me know. I ONLY provide this service as a courtesy to C&C List members, not as a business concern (as I don't make any $$$ at it…).
With those two items and the previously-mentioned Octopus linear hydraulic drive at $1580, you'd be looking at about $3930 plus shipping and installation for a kick-@$$ autopilot system well-suited to the LF39. How much of this will you be doing yourself?
