Hi there,
I've searched the history and saw multiple topics on this question, but years have gone and equipment has changed.
I'm interested in getting a ram type of drive installed. I read that other people have done a ram drive install in the port lazarette, with the rod of the drive poking out thru a cut in the wall, protected by a rubber boot. Also I'm considering installing the Simrad/B&G NAC-3 autopilot core pack along with a B&G T2 ram drive.
Have you folks done this? Do you know/think the B&G T2 drive fits in there?
I saw that Ben Solomon put a CPT pilot wheel unit on his. It looks like a less invasive install, but I'd like to get more B&G products installed in the end and have the autopilot work with the rest of it. In particular I'd like the autopilot to be able to hold an apparent wind angle, which the CPT pilot doesn't do as far as I can tell.
