CM85i - The Intelligent Autopilot Solution For Sail and Power-2

Manufactured to perform in one of the harshest marine environments in the world, the Australian-made Coursemaster CM85/ autopilot's self-tuning automatically adjusts according to boat speed, sea conditions and trim. The rate gyro compass maximises autopilot performance and minimises the effects of acceleration, roll and pitch. The combination of these two features means that the autopilot is able to steer a more accurate course with less rudder movement resulting in lower power consumption and less wear and tear on the vessel's steering system. Simple to operate, the CM85/ offers skippers the...
