If you have one of the old Sportpilot from the 90's, Raymarine no longer has any parts. I had one on my prior boat, and after many years of grinding back and forth, the belt & pulley wore out. Closest replacement I found was from www.sdp-si.com/products/miniature-products/miniature-belts-and-pulleys-inch.php. It had one extra cog, and a little longer, so I had to modify the motor mount to tighten the belt, but it's still going for the current owner. When all else fails, bite the bullet, change to hydraulic steering and put in a pump and a new Simrad or Raymarine A/P. Good Luck. |
