HYDRAULIC STEERING:
Boats with hydraulic steering use a reversing pump connected to the existing steering system. Pilot type is determined primarily by the total steering capacity
of the existing system.
MECHANICAL STEERING: Linear drives are used by most sailboats and by powerboats with mechanical steering. The cylinder is generally attached to a separate tiller arm connected
to the rudder shaft.

The
information above is presented as a general guideline
for the proper selection of autopilot drive units. The
drive unit requirement will determine which Advanced
Control Processor (ACP) system is needed to complete
the installation. The primary consideration in
determining the drive unit type is boat displacement.
In addition
to boat size, the proper selection of a hydraulic pump
for hydraulic systems will be further defined by the
total capacity or displacement of the boat's steering
system.
