I’m looking to outfit my boat soon with an autopilot, and I’d like to ask for some advice. I’m looking for a basic unit ties into my steering that will hold my last heading while I work lines or retrieve a fish. I’m not looking for one of those elaborate units tied into the GPS.
We were talking to Skip about this last fall and he recommended a place on Kent Island. Looking through my wife’s notes, I think he recommended this place, but I’m not sure:

I would like to get away for between 1 and 2 grand, closer to 1 without buying junk. I have a 21 foot center console with a Yamaha 150 2-stroke. I would appreciate any good advice on this. Skip, I liked the look of yours with the little hand unit at the helm and the way “Sailfish 27” steered straight and true while you tended lines. Thanks!
