Simrad at Hines Marine —
Autopilots that hold a course.
Simrad has been building marine navigation gear in Norway since 1946. On our boats it is mostly steering — the A2004 Pilot is the Autopilot we install more than any other, properly setup and calibrated. Pilots that actually work!
The Simrad gear on our boats.
Not a catalogue — this is what actually goes into the packages we build, pulled from the vessels on our fleet page.
A2004 Autopilot Kit
Our standard go to pilot across the fleet. Solid course steering, easy dodge and turn patterns at the control head.
FU80 Follow Up Remote
Dedicated Autopilot control with intuitive Follow Up steering — rotate the lever Port or Starboard and the rudder moves to the matching angle, holding it there until you set a new one. The commanded rudder angle is shown on the integrated display and by the lever position. The remote can be flush- or surface-mounted almost anywhere for steering control from multiple stations.
A pilot is only as good as its install.
Most Autopilot issues are Hydraulic and sensor problems, not the pilot. Our years of experience installing autopilots result in a properly setup + calibrated system that steers your boat like you've never seen.
- Trained on Simrad Commercial Autopilots Systems
- Systems + Parts regularly stocked
- One of the best warrenty policies in the industry
