Cosa tratta questo video

The owner of an Alberg 30 replaces a failing Raymarine ST2000 tiller pilot with a Pelagic autopilot system while sailing in the southern islands of Thailand.0:24 The installation involves mounting the Pelagic control box inside the navigation station to protect the electronics from water intrusion, a common failure point for the Raymarine unit.7:04 The owner removes an obsolete Raymarine wind instrument from the cockpit bulkhead and installs the Pelagic control head in the existing hole, sealing it with butyl tape.10:25 The actuator connects to the tiller using the existing bronze socket, though the owner must wire the cockpit power plug specifically for a port-side installation to ensure the motor drives the rudder in the correct direction.19:57 The system is plug-and-play with the previous Raymarine power wiring, requiring only the connection of power, ground, and motor leads to the control box.8:39 A test run confirms the Pelagic unit maintains course effectively, though the actuator operates with more noise than the previous Raymarine model.29:12
