Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ST1000 Plus and ST2000 Plus?

The ST1000 Plus is designed for vessels up to 6,600 lbs displacement, while the ST2000 Plus handles boats up to 10,000 lbs. Both feature identical advanced autopilot functions, but the ST2000 Plus has a more powerful drive unit for larger vessels.

Can the ST1000 Plus work with GPS navigation systems?

Yes, the ST1000 Plus supports both SeaTalk and NMEA 0183 protocols, enabling integration with GPS chartplotters for waypoint navigation, cross-track error display, and bearing-to-waypoint information on the LCD display.

Is professional installation required for the ST1000 Plus?

No, the ST1000 Plus is designed for owner installation with comprehensive instructions included. The quick-connect mounting system allows easy installation and removal without permanent modifications to your boat.

What is the power consumption during typical sailing conditions?

Power consumption varies from 40mA in standby to 0.5-1.5A during active steering, depending on boat trim, helm load, and sailing conditions. The AutoSeastate feature optimizes power usage based on sea conditions.

Proven Marine Electronics Excellence

Continue the legacy of marine autopilot innovation with Raymarine's ST1000 Plus Tiller Pilot. Since the original Autohelm introduction in 1973, these systems have remained the world's most popular tiller pilots, combining time-tested reliability with modern electronic sophistication for today's coastal cruising sailors.

Invented by Autohelm in 1973, our tiller pilots have consistently been the world's most popular tiller pilots ever since, setting the standard for performance, reliability, and ease of use. The ST1000 and ST2000 tiller pilots are self-contained, removable autopilot systems for tiller-steered boats. Inside the durable housing is a powerful electric linear drive, precision fluxgate compass, and an easy-to-use control panel. A quick mounting and connect/disconnect system allows you to transition from hand-steering to autopilot control easily. Built-in SeaTalk networking allows the tiller pilot to communicate with the rest of your networked instruments, wind instrument, and chartplotter. Convenient AutoTack mode lets you handle the sheets while the pilot tacks the boat, and AutoSeastate intelligently keeps the boat on course while conserving power.
