I have a B&G h1000 pilot, new in early 2007. Fluxgate compass was faulty and had to be replaced (under warranty but a MAJOR HASSLE in the Caribbean) and now the speed sensor is faulty even after cleaning it thouroghly. I have yet to use the pilot in really rough or quartering seas so I cannot comment on how well it is going to work when the going gets rough. The H1000 cannot accept a gyro compass. You have to spend major bucks on a higher end B&G to get the GYRO feature. I have ahydraulic drive unit and really like that. This pilot came with the boat. I would have bought Simrad if I had the choice.
