Fixing Raymarine Autohelm Rotary Drive AutoPilot - Replacing a Burnt Out Clutch Switch
All of our sailboat repair and maintenance blogs are now hosted on our dedicated maintenance channel, MOTHERSHIP MAINTENANCE Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/c/mothershipmaintenance
An edited version of this video is now hosted there.
This video is about maintenance of #Raymarine, #Autohelm rotary drive unit for sprocket and chain type steering systems in an #Amelyacht These units, made by Raymarine are robust but if installed wrongly – as ours was – it can lead to the clutch switch burning out and smoke coming from the rotary drive as happened on our #sailboat while cruising the med.

Mothership Adrift Travel and Sailing
We're a UK family who have saved over many years to live the dream of travelling the world with our kids. We sold our belongings, closed our business and rented our house to buy a 20 year old sailboat . We want to show the kids that there is a bigger world out there and to appreciate the simple things in life, things that you find in the sea, the woods, up mountains, along the beach , the sky and the stars. Our dream of cruising and exploring the world's oceans is matched with a desire to live a more off-grid and sustainable lifestyle. A background as RYA instructors, flotilla skippers and RNLI crew only partly prepared us for the challenges of a live-aboard life! From buying a boat to homeschooling the kids, from cooking on a budget to making money while we travel, from sailboat maintenance to visiting amazing places - join our journey and share in our world adventure, as well as the challenges of family life, through our series of video blogs.
