[CA] [CA11] Autopilot selection for my size of boat

[stevemitchell]

I would like to replace the existing autopilot system on my boat, but am having difficulties figuring out which EV1 package to purchase.

I have an existing hydraulic pump that I would like to keep. It is not very old, and works extremely well. It is a Type 2 hydraulic pump and has two wires coming into it.

The boat itself is a 1988 Ocean Alexander 42' sundeck yacht, around 28,000 pounds dry weight, max speed of 20 knots, although we cruise mostly at 10-12 knots.

I am guessing based on this that the ACU-400 is the unit I should be using, and the package I should be ordering is T70162. I just want to confirm that seems correct, and that I can use it with an existing pump.
