RAYMARINE EV-100 Tiller Pilot

Very good autopilot, a significant improvement compared to the predecessor without Gyrosensor, controls our 11-m short keel sailing yacht from 6 tons safe to 5-6 Bft from aft.

by Jörg S.

Everything great, very fast compass, good control behavior also in the wave. No snakes. Nevertheless, fast course. Works well in mixed environment (Autohelm ST80 and Raymarine e70).

Perfect delivery Excellent product

EV1 Kit Excellent products. Connection seatalk ng easy to install. Too bad that the length of the cables supplied (branch and dorsal) are not optional, so you have to buy other cables if the configuration of the installation requires it. Ditto for mounting the cylinder, the accessories are very expensive at Raymarine. It is better to be a good handyman. However, once mounted, parameterized and calibrated, the system is powerful.

Product details

The EV 100 tiller pilot is a perfect autopilot for tiller-operated yachts up to 6t displacement. Ideal boat length up to 11 m.

The new Raymarine EV-100 autopilot ensures easy self-control of your boat, difficult calibration is no longer necessary. Due to the intelligent EV-sensor, the autopilot monitors multiple ship movements in all directions and automatically adjusts the steering to match existing sea conditions, without the user having to adjust any other settings. A further big advantage of the autopilot is flexibility of installation. The device itself can be installed where it is easiest for you to access, while the EV-sensor can be mounted where it makes most sense to you, no matter if above or below deck. The sensor core is protected against water ingress to IPx6 and IPx7 standards. The various components are easily connected to each other via SeaTalk (NMEA2000), and all cables required are included.

Additional control units can be connected via the SeaTalkng network

Good product quality and excellent advice

After the excellent advice from Mr. Stürck at the Kiel branch, the purchase decision was easy for me. I was able to install, operate, and test the Tiller Pilot easily, following the provided documentation. It does what it's supposed to, even though I'm using it with the minimal configuration, i.e., without a rudder reference sensor and without data from a wind sensor. I don't rule out the possibility of adding these components in the future, but so far, that doesn't seem necessary.

Seems to work well

The part itself seems to work well.
It is difficult to estimate the price-performance ratio because there are no competing devices.
Negative The cables included are too short for a sensible installation, which is very stingy. You have to reorder expensive cables. You also need an extra cable for the connection to NMEA (preferably backbone), which is of course not included, but you would like clear instructions.
I am still giving it 5 stars because the installation, once you finally have all the cables together, went well and the thing works well. I don't know what it's like in winds over 5 Bft. But up to 15, 16 knots of wind, it ran smoothly.

Top delivery

Unfortunately, the configuration description is not always clear. But after many attempts on the control unit, the configuration was OK and the autopilot controls the boat as if it were on rails.
