Recently purchased a 1996 29.5 that does not have an autopilot. Intend to install an ST4000W. Does anyone have any experience or info on this installation? Thanks. Phillip Coker Silent Dancer San Francisco

I did..

on my 29.5 . works fine.installed the fluxgate compass under the galey sink , vertically , away from metals. Had a bit of headache routing the cables to the cockpit console , but eventually worked fine (from galey to under the port stern bed , to port locker , tru a marinized hole to center under the cockpit upper floor and to cockpit console ). No problem for the last 5 years.. Very friendly , altogh there is some noise as the wheel turns , somehow less then the 3000-belt- version , but much user-friendly than the 3000W.

Thanks!

Thanks for the response, Alex. The galley position for the flux gate compass appears to be the best. Picking up the system tomorrow. Phillip
