Hi Guys, Just ordered one for my boat which will remotely steer the F200 and the kicker when attached. Any of you guys have this onboard? If so have you interfaced it with an autopilot? I want to make sure I get the correct receiver so down the road I can possibly add a auto pilot. Would appreciate any and all opinions. Looking forward. Cheers, trapper

I've never heard of that product before. Does it allow you to only move the outboard remotely and you are responsible for future corrections or does it hold a heading automatically?

Halfhich, It is just remote steering, but robust enough to steer the F 200 through the hydraulic steering. I tie the kicker to the F200 so can use it for trolling then remove the tie bar and use it for cruising. Like to get out from behind the wheel on hot days and my wife does the navigating and netting while fishing, so we like a little control at the stern when "double headers" :D show up. Fun to sit on the bow while cruising in our beautiful Desolation Sound and Discovery Islands. It is almost installed, so no doubt will post some pics of the process. Cheers, trapper
