I am looking to add an autopilot for my 2002 Gulfstream with twin Honda 130s. Never had one and I think it would make my offshore trips a little easier as I get older. Any suggestions on what make/model that would fit my boat? Also how much would an approximate cost be installed by an electronics dealer? Thanks for any help.

What electronics do you have on the boat currently? Probably a good idea to stay with the same manufacturer to get the most out of the package. I would guess cost to install and configure to be in the neighborhood of $1,000-1,500. Obviously less if you do it yourself.

I installed this Simrad AP44 earlier this year and while I don't have a ton of time on it yet, so far so good!

I'm also considering adding AP to my 232. Have Raymarine es78 with Twin F150 Yammies. What would you recommend?
