Hello Guys,
I have a 2006 Marlin 300 with twin yamaha 250 four strokes. Current autopilot is a Nautimatic TR 1 that was installed when boat was new and has served me well until last year - my guess is that it is at end of life - apparently parts are no longer generally available. The lights on the helm controls all light as normal, but the autopilot does not "engage." I have a few questions: a) based on my description, is there any simple troubleshooting that I can do in hope of a simple solution? b) any recommendations for a replacement autopilot; c) does anyone know the diameter of the steering RAM on the boat (which i am told is needed to size an appropriate replacement); d) any recommendations for an installer in Pt Pleasant, NJ area?
thanks in advance for any advice/input.
