Hello everyone, I have a question about integrating two different electronic components. I have installed on my
boat at this time, a Tailfin
Kicker guidance system by PowrTran. It is
remote control but is not an
Autopilot. I've heard that some folks have installed a
Raymarine EV-100
autopilot with their Tailfin successfully. If anyone has heard anything on this topic, I would be extremely grateful for your
advice. I've noticed that most of the
Raymarine guidance kits come with the piston acuator to turn the trolling
motor, but the Tailfin I currently have installed already has this, and so I'm good there, I just need the guidance system.
I was told by Steven Hiemenz (one of the owners of Tailfin and PowrTran), that he's heard of some people successfully integrating the Tailfin and Raymarine EV-100 together. He also told me he hasn't heard of anyone doing it with a
Garmin system.
I should probably also state that my main
fishfinder is a Humminbird Helix 10 MSI 3rd generation.
Thanks,
Bart Nordstrom
