[CA] [CA11] Replacing a Robertson AP3000 Auto pilot

[bwmarks]

My boat has a Robertson AP3000 auto pilot. It is failing quickly, and being 1994 issue, not worth fixing.

I've used E-200 autopilots and love them, is this an option for direct replacement or do I need the E-400?

I want a stand alone A/P so compatibility and talking between the Garmin MFD is no needed. or is direct talk with the Furuno Radar

The current hydraulic pump is a Robertson RPU 160 which is in great shape it's specs are 60 bar pressure, 12V 3-10A draw 10-33 cubic inch capacity and doesn't need to be replaced

Since the boat is used commercially, I'd also like a remote for the auto pilot - wireless is preferred.

The boat is a Robbins 40 deadrise, 435 hp, single inboard 15 GT (30,000 lbs) 40 x 14 x 3

Please let me know what system to get and I'll order it right away, hand steering daily on charters is not fun!

thanks
