The CPT Autopilot is a reliable, heavy duty, wheel pilot suitable for a wide range of sail and power boats.

We learned how to use the pilot easily and are very impressed. We did our trial run across the dreaded Tuhuantepec. I used the remote control to navigate up a canal following a bar pilot. We had about every condition variation on the trip. Thanks soooooooo much for getting us on the program. It makes our other unit...seem like a toy.
