Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum boat displacement for the ST2000 Plus?
The ST2000 Plus is designed for sailing vessels up to 10,000 lbs (4,500 kg) maximum displacement. Always consider your boat's fully laden displacement, which is often 20% above designed displacement weight.
Can the ST2000 Plus integrate with GPS and other instruments?
Yes, the ST2000 Plus features built-in SeaTalk networking and NMEA 0183 compatibility, allowing integration with Raymarine chartplotters, GPS systems, wind instruments, and other networked marine electronics.
Is the ST2000 Plus suitable for offshore sailing?
The ST2000 Plus is specifically designed for coastal cruising applications on tiller-steered sailboats. For offshore passage making, consider Raymarine's more robust wheel-steered autopilot systems designed for extended ocean voyaging.
How does the AutoTack feature work?
The AutoTack mode allows the autopilot to execute tacks automatically while you handle the sheets and sail trim. This feature is particularly valuable for single-handed sailing, enabling precise course changes while maintaining optimal sail configuration.

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.
