Simrad AP44 VRF Medium Capacity Autopilot System Pack MK2 - 000-13291-002

The AP44 VRF Medium Capacity Autopilot System Pack MK2 includes everything you need to build a Simrad autopilot system for hydraulic-steered outboard and sterndrive (inboard/outboard) boats up to 10 m, or 35'. The PUMP-2 reversible hydraulic gear pump handles cylinder displacement of 80-250 cc, and is driven by the capable NAC-2 autopilot computer. This pack also includes the Simrad Precision-9 solid-state compass, plus a N2K power cable kit with cabling and connectors.

Features:

• Complete pack includes everything you need to upgrade your boat with a Simrad Continuum autopilot system
