[C320-list] Raymarine EV100 Wheel Autopilot/B&G Vulcan

[Chris Burti]

I have to add that the linear drive handled it’s chores for us in plus thirty knot winds. The installation was relatively straight forward and the cost would have been much less if I had done the job the last time I replaced the wheel pilot.
