Easy to install, as it's plug and play and
The drive and rudder angle sensor are identical to their predecessors from Autohelm.

The wind gauge, log, and depth sounder failed after installation because they received their power from the old course computer via the Seatalk1 network. Therefore, the Seatalk1 cable should not be disconnected immediately. These components can be reconnected and powered via a converter kit to the autopilot's new SeatalkNG network.

The old control unit (Autohelm ST6000) was connected in series with Seatalk 1, so the power connection between the new course computer and the wind, log, and depth sounder was also interrupted. You simply need to reconnect the existing plug.

Installed on a 1998 Najad 361

Exchange of old Autohelm AP to new Raymarine
Drive, Rudder Sensor, Control Unit fitting perfectly into the previous holes and fittings. ACU is slightly bigger than the old one. Easy connection of the new SeatalkNG. Log, Echosounder and Wind Sensor require a connection via converter cable to the new SeatalkNG as they got their power supply from the old ACU.
Pilot Evolution ACU200 EV1 P70S T1
Simply the best in its class. Reliable and talented.

Very good autopilot
The mechanical installation, especially of the linear drive, wasn't exactly straightforward. This was less due to the drive itself than to the space constraints on the ship. The subsequent commissioning was problem-free. However, we can be extremely satisfied with the result. Excellent course stability, and the wind vane steering also works perfectly.

Everything received perfectly.
Just starting to test it. A huge improvement on my autopilot. All very well.
My only regret (maybe I haven't found any additional information) is that Raymarine doesn't offer a MOB system that disengages the autopilot when sailing solo?

Raymarine Autopilot EV200 linear package
The package was delivered quickly. The rudder bearing sensor included makes the package fully equipped. I can't say anything about the function at the moment, as the drive still needs to be installed and tested in the water in the spring.

The quality is not commensurate with the price.
Unfortunately, one of the mounting bolts was drilled incorrectly. Raymarine offered no assistance whatsoever; the bolt could only be installed by omitting the provided washers. Very poor quality for the price.

The tiny retaining clips made of plastic on the top of the compass are useless, as they are broken off during assembly.
