Downwind in following seas is what I am talking about..
In Response To: Unreliable autopilot ()
when I say the newer gyro pilots are much better. Huge difference. But no way I would recommend the X-5 for a 37' boat. In a Raymarine you need the X30 with a real drive. The Jefa drive I am using is rated at 240 NM. You especially need some power in the drive downwind in following seas.
