Hydraulic Actuator for autopilot on a Hunter?
Has anyone tried to install a hydraulic actuator to replace a wheel autopilot on a Hunter? I have a 34 Hunter and there does seem to be enough space to install a hydraulic cylinder connected to the steering quadrant. The wheel autopilot works well in relatively calm conditions but struggles mightily with stern quartering seas.
