Tiller drive kit
The complete tiller drive kit can steer almost any tiller-steered boat. It is designed as a direct replacement for Raymarine, Autohelm, and Simrad tiller drives. The tiller drive is stronger and faster than the main brands. With the built-in position feedback, your boat steers more accurately and consumes less power. With a longer stroke, this actuator can handle heavier seas and perform tacks better. Direct replacement for ST1000, ST2000, Q047, TP12, and TP20.

*For Non EU countries additional import taxes may applyThis is an all-in-one product and ready-to-install package containing:
- Tiller drive with position feedback
- Control box
- 2x remote control
- Remote holder which snaps on the tiller drive
- Mounting hardware
The tiller drive will be a direct replacement for the Raymarine ST1000, ST2000, Simrad TP10/TP32 as the same tiller pin and mounting sockets are used. The mid-stroke length of Raymarine and Simrad slightly differs, so upon order specify which length you want.
The tiller drive can also be extended by another 500 mm so there are more options to fit the actuator. A drill will be supplied to make a hole at the desired length. Just cut off the excess material and drill a hole of 10 mm depth.
Since the original Raymarine fittings, the pin and brass socket, are used, any mounting bracket by those brands can be used. The tiller drive rod extension cannot be re-used.
The actuator is fitted with a 100 cm wire with a 5-pin waterproof plug. Install the female end of the plug on your boat by making a 12 mm hole. The female end of the plug comes with a 100 cm cable which should be connected to the control box. Separately you have to provide 12 volts from your battery to the control box.

Better than the Simrad and the Raymarine tiller pilot
I find the Nautinect works best when I don't change any of the variables, and it keeps my 10m sailboat on course on most points of sail using the default setup. My engine however, interferes with it, even though they're not especially close, I mounted the brain of the Nautinect as far as possible from the engine and away from any other sources of r.f. but even so, when motoring it won't keep to a bearing. In general I'm happy that I bought the Nautinect because it is better than a standalone tiller pilot from Simrad or Raymarine although that said, those are pretty crap honestly, having barely changed in decades and they are not robust either. If I could change something about the Nautinect it would be that it was less affected by the engine, if I could change two things I would have it be quieter. It gets a bit grating listing to the servo.
A very good, cost effective, tiller steering autopilot on a 9.5M sports yacht.
The Nautinect proprietary tiller steering Autopilot has exhibited a much stronger and improved range of performance on my light displacement Robertson 950 Sports yacht. The Nautinect package was chosen as a replacement for two previously owned Navionics ST 2000 tiller pilots both of which failed due to design fault weaknesses.
Geweldige stuurautomaat. Sterk en stabiel sturend. Prima tack functie. Eenvoudig te installeren en te bedienen.
