Re: Stus-List Raymarine EV-100 CC 38
Joe — what instrument have you got for wind? Have you got speed depth instruments that have outputs for NMEA0183? Still need more info (manufacturer and model numbers would be helpful) to be able to ascertain how (or if) you’ll be able to interconnect your gear.

Thanks Graham. Boat currently has a Garmin GPS and wind speed/gps speed but no plotter or moving map. Would the raymarine work with those?

Re: Stus-List Raymarine EV-100 CC 38
Autopilot should be your first priority! It will make sailing your boat so much more fun. You won't be a slave to the helm and can tend to sailtrim or serving your guests. We use it to steer while hoisting sails or dropping sails. It's the first bit of gear I added to my boats. It's also something you can work on and get 100% in the cold winter we are having.

Re: Stus-List Raymarine EV-100 CC 38
Joe — Graham’s correct, the EV-100 ACU will only power a hydraulic drive good for medium-size hydraulically-steered powerboats; that’s its niche. With a boat your size and displacement, you’ll need either a Type 1 linear drive or a hydraulic ram like the Octopus; and thus the more powerful EV-200 to drive it. Richard Bush on the list is in the process of installing a system with a Raymarine “a Series MFD and an EV-200 ACU, using an Octopus hydraulic drive. With the pinched sterns on our boats (he’s got a 37), it’s a real challenge finding room for the drive and attaching it properly to the quadrant (there’s really not enough room for a tiller arm on some of these). Maybe he can chime in on his experience. If you’re looking for advice and system info on Raymarine or other systems, this list has a wealth of experience; let me know off-list if I can help you source equipment or design a system.

Re: Stus-List Raymarine EV-100 CC 38
Thanks Fred; We did get everything installed and, despite the difficulty of the tight area, it was worth the effort; the unit is plenty powerful enough to handle the boat in big waves; also, we relied heavily on Freds's advice during the install; On Mar 1, 2015, at 11:13 AM, Frederick G Street via CnC-List cnc-list@cnc-list.com wrote: Joe — Graham’s correct, the EV-100 ACU will only power a hydraulic drive good for medium-size hydraulically-steered powerboats; that’s its niche.
