Hey Knot Smart,

Not sure where you live, but here are two ideas:
1. Go to the top of the page and search for owners of 352 and send one or two of them an email asking your question.
2. Call Beneteau USA in SC and ask. They will know.

Went down to the boat yard and measured the wheel today. It is 42 inches across.

And yes, if you had the autohelm wheel mounted 4000+ autopilot installed, you will need the wheel steering unit too.

Good luck with your project!
