Alpha 3000 Ram or Motor for an Older Ram

I'm looking for an Alpha 3000 ram or older motor for a ram. My motor died and they quit making them about 18 years ago. If anyone wants to get rid of theirs let me know!!!

Thanks,

Lee

Did you see this post just a day or so back? It may have the same motor.

I assume Alpha no longer supports them? Alpha 800-257-4225

I have a linear drive from an Alpha 3000 auto pilot system. It has been in storage for the last 12 years. Please check out the attached pictures and let me know if you would like more information. Thanks.

Re: Alpha 3000 ram or motor for an older ram

Hello,

I have to figure out if that is the same as mine. What size boat did this come off of? Another question is the length? I think that there are two different sizes in the length overall?

Unfortunately I don't have that information with me at this moment. I'm in Florida fixing a boat up and my boat, with the Alpha auto pilot, is in St. Martin. My girlfriend will be back on the boat around Saturday. I'll try to figure out everything this weekend. But I will need the length of yours to figure it out.

Do you have the rest of the parts of the autopilot? Control head, fluxgate compass.

How much would you want for the whole unit or just the ram?

Thanks and I'm definitely interested,

Lee

Good afternoon!

Is this Alpha Marine autopilot still for sale? Is it just the drive ram or are there other components that come with it? We are definitely interested.

Thanks,
Pat
