I'm looking for some thoughts on selecting a tiller pilot for my Catalina 30.
The old tiller pilot that came with the boat needs to be replaced, it can only marginally hold a course and more often than I am comfortable with goes haywire and puts the boats into a circle. I have been looking at replacements and believe the RayMarine EV-100 is the way to go. It is rated for 13,200 lbs which gives me some margin above my 10,200 lb displacement. Anyone have stories good or bad about the EV-100, or suggestions on a different solution to look into?
