Joel Displacement is 18,000 and its rated for just over 16,000. Good point. I wouldn't use it for rough waters or big breezes. I'm thinking more for light air under power and going a long distance. All the best, Edd --- Edd M. Schillay Starship Enterprise NCC-17

Looking at the boat and comparing it with my 1980 version: that one is about as stock from the factory you can get - it doesn't have a wind instrument, but the display on the bulkhead could be a double - speed and depth - or just depth. The display near the wheel is probably for the autopilot.

The Robertson autopilots are generally very reliable. I assume its an under-deck unit. The ones I have worked on are easy to troubleshoot and repair. Unless you have money to burn and just have to have a new unit, I suggest doing some simple troubleshooting to find exactly where the problem is.
