Not sure I agree with that comment. I have an Octopus hydraulic ram on my 37/40+ and can feel the prop wash as it crosses the rudder and even waves through the wheel response.

No matter which brand autopilot you use (mine is B
&G Zeus2, I would recommend you use the Raymarine electric ram. The hydraulic units have far too much drag and ruin the feel of the rudder.

I was told that you could not put an underdeck on my 34+ and so went with a wheel pilot. I have since learned that it is possible, and not really that hard. I wish I had known it sooner, as I really liked the hydraulic unit my older boat had. I would contact Colin Mack at Mack Sails. He did someone’s boat and has a customized installation they can do for you or can sell you what you need for self-installation. DaveAries
