It's only money right??? Remote steering or Auto pilot?

OK, so I took the plunge and got the Raymarine EV-150 installed. Very preliminary but, wow! Mainly used it (so far) for trolling but boy does it take the stress out of setting up, fighting fish, resetting. I was having a bit of rationalization for the cost, but no more. And I’ve really only begun to work with the unit. No guff it’s a pile of money, but it certainly does make life on the water easier.

Congrats!

They aren't cheap... but I like to say "you never miss the money you've spent on things you want" ;)

What is really amazing is how well the AP can keep our course in choppy conditions. Manually, I tended to overcorrect and when a rod went off, the goat rodeo began. Even with aft steering it was a bit of a challenge.
 
Have just put the garmin kicker AP on. It is a complete game changer. Worth every penny.
