Doug — sorry for the delay; it’s haulout weekend. Yes, on any Raymarine
autopilot systems older than the current EVO systems, you really need to have
the rudder reference transducer installed and calibrated to get decent
performance out of the system.
You should have gotten a transducer along
Fred,
I guess this goes for st4000 wheel pilots too? Are there any available for
these and how tough an install.

Fred, I never got the transducer with my system. If you have one I would be
more than happy to buy it off you.

To Rick's question, I have no idea why the old ones worked, they may have been
designed to simply follow a compass course, but I think that from the four

sensor. I know mine was worthless until I put it in. A salesman

Touche' still has the original roller boom. It can't roll anymore because
of the rigid boom vang.
I've replaced the old screw type outhaul with a car and 4:1 purchase.

Bill — the older ST4000 wheelpilot does not use a rudder reference transducer;
but the newer ST4000+ does. It should have shipped with one. They are
available as a standalone part, for about $250 plus shipping. As I mentioned
before, I have a spare here somewhere; if anyone is interested, the

I just replaced the pin stop traveler this year. Replaced with a
