I use the TP 32 in professional over 3000 M \ r \ nIt gives completely satisfaction \ r \ nThe one I just bought is intended to eventually replace the current in case of failure because I can not to pass from a pilot on board.

Excellent, precise, resistant and relatively affordable price The other competitors do not have the same level features

Product conform to the catalog. Fast and flawless SVB service. Domage that Simrad does not join a waterproof deck outlet for feeding.

Nice product. Need to learn all details to get everything of it. In heavy side wind with gusts, it is difficult to keep 28\' sailboat on right course without having extra curves.

Definitely value for money. Could be slightly more silent when sailing in low wind.

Works as expected
I\'m happy with the product. No experience of other tiller pilots. Build quality seems sturdy. I use it for Maxi 68 boat (1500 kg).

Very good price and postage cost. Still trying the auto pilot, but seems to work well.

After initial installation, a few settings had to be made (calibrate); After that, the tiller pilot worked perfectly. Too bad that the manufacturer has omitted the data cable on the TP10, because then he would be perfect. Schol. SVB: Not only the data cable is missing, but unfortunately the whole interface.

Seems to be a well working unit, easy to install and easy to use, but not quite as easy to adjust to my boat.

The delivery order was very fast The problem is when I plugged it, it broke immediately, then I phoned SVB, very quickly I received a shipping slip by colissimo, it's a few days (August 15th) I'm waiting ...

Recurring failures
a burnt-out TP 30, replaced by a burnt-out TP32 after 18 months (270 euros per card), broken down again after two years...
Equipment, however, little used because my sailboat is equipped with an ATOMS wind speed regulator...

Disappointing quality, super SVB service
My TP 20 is getting old and broken beyond repair. I needed a new one, so I ordered a TP 22. It worked great for motoring. As soon as I put pressure on the tiller, the TP was dead. The mechanism broke within 10 minutes. It was replaced without any problems. The replacement unit had the same problem. The yacht, a Carter 33, weighs only 4.5 tons and is 10 meters long. The sails are usually trimmed so that there is little pressure on the rudder. I'm disappointed. Only SVB shone again with its handling....Thanks.

Broke after first use!
Hello, four days ago we left for our sailing boat.
I was really looking forward to assembling the Tp22.
The assembly of the brackets and power supply went smoothly!
Then it went on the water, I noticed that the tiller pilot somehow didn't keep the course under the engine. And suddenly after about 10 minutes total failure! First I checked the complete assembly but everything was ok I asked a jetty neighbor for his tiller pilot when I plugged it in he ran immediately.
I will send back the defective TP 22 in a week!
And I hope that I get a new one back and not a repaired one.
Kind regards. Micah
