Up for bid is a used, in excellent condition, Sitex Sp-70 autopilot. I removed this unit from a boat that I sold. I then returned the entire system to Sitex to have all components checked out. All components checked out and Sitex upgraded the processor. This unit has the newest Teleflex SmartStik outboard rudder feedback system (a $450 addition). This does not come standard with the SP-70. The drive unit is very powerful and holds a course even at slow troll. The system as it is will work with single and twin outboard set-ups. It will also work with inboards with the proper rudder feedback unit (not included). Before bidding, check the specs for this unit at Sitex. My experience with Sitex customer support has been very favorable.
