Brad,
I installed the Raymarine EV200 with type I linear drive on my 34+. I
couldn't be happier with the results. Very powerful in all points of sail. Zero
feedback with the unit in standby. I sail solo 90% of the time and it would
be very difficult without it. The wireless remote is pretty handy

Regardless of the controller you use, I would recommend the Raymarine
Electric Drive Unit (Type 2?). The benefit of an electric drive unit is it
doesn't have the drag on the wheel/tiller when in standby mode. The
hydraulic units I've used make it hard to feel the boat when hand steering.

I’ve been crawling around below deck on our C&C 33/2 contemplating the

Tom,
Thought I'd weigh in as a former Edsonite.. The most important thing to
realize when installing the autopilot is that the clamping action of the arm
and cap for the tiller arm is the primary form of attachment to the rudder
post. Edson makes the arm with a .002" clamping tolerance to the
dropping the rudder.

Hi Tom,
I am told not all rudderposts have a keyway that reaches down the post
far enough. I was lucky; mine did. It may be that you exposed the shaft
further down than I did. I've heard from others that they didn't have a
keyway and had to drill the post and install bolts. Your other choi
Very deceptive. I would have never guessed.

Good lord! Drill through 3 inches of stainless steel! Nope! That one is
going to the machine shop for me. I don't care if it is a cobalt bit and
guided. The machine shop could put in a keyway while you have it out
instead of a hole.

On Sun,
Tom,
I had the same issue on my 34+, no keyway. I called Edson and they said
you must drill through the post. The Edson arm has a hole on one end which
guides the drill to the opposite side. Then you finish by drilling through
the bronze arm for the bolt. Be sure and use a cobalt drill bit to ge
I am moving forward with the below deck linear drive install. We put in the
structural support and then exposed the rudder post. However a few oddities.
First, in spite of the build plans calling for an 80mm diameter rudder post it
is, in fact, 75mm. And, although the Images that Josh posted
a lot of great insights and ideas. I'm going to mull

Tom,
That depends on which install. One + owner had the hydraulic arm attached to
the rudder post.
Another (me) has an arm attached to the quadrant.
