That's a good upgrade - autohelms do really well on this boat because they are so balanced. I have the low-end Raymarine one (ST 1000?)- my mounting socket is?on top of?the starboard coaming. I had to get a 7 inch extension to make it work right, but it's a handy installation. Measure twice, drill once, everything has to be just right if you want it to work right. Also, if you have any speakers out there they have to be several feet away or the magnetics will drive it bonkers. I made that mistake on a previous boat : ) !
