Best BUDGET Autopilot: CPT Autopilot Install & Review
CAPTAIN’s log, stardate 231212.1. Today we embark on an exciting journey as we install and review the incredible CPT Autopilot system. Our mission? To bring you aboard our vessel, where we’ll walk through every step of this installation process and share our thoughts on this amazing autopilot. Get ready to dive in with Wildly Intrepid Sailing!
Budget-friendly Autopilot
We recently acquired a remarkable find – the CPT Autopilot. This autopilot is not only reliable but also surprisingly budget-friendly, making it an ideal choice for those of us who crave adventure without breaking the bank. With its sleek design and robust functionality, this autopilot promises to enhance our sailing experience by automating certain tasks, allowing us more time to explore.
The Installation Process
We’re thrilled to share that the installation of the CPT Autopilot was straightforward and well-documented. With clear instructions provided, our team embarked on this project with enthusiasm. Though we encountered minor challenges such as disconnected wires from previous owners, our tenacity paid off as we successfully overcame these obstacles.
Tips for Using CPT Autopilot
To ensure optimal performance of the CPT Autopilot, our team offers a few tips. First and foremost, familiarize yourself with all components before installation – this foresight will make your setup process much smoother. Remember to secure all wires neatly for future maintenance accessibility. Lastly, keep an eye on those hose clamps; using a nut driver may prove easier than struggling with a flathead screwdriver!
Impressions and Benefits
We’re impressed by the power and quality of the CPT Autopilot. Unlike many other wheel-driven autopilots, this one is notably stronger – capable of handling up to 100 lbs of force on our vessel’s steering wheel. With a solid reputation for reliability, we believe this autopilot is an excellent investment for any boater seeking both functionality and affordability.
An Investment Worth Making
The CPT Autopilot offers us a new level of control while sailing, allowing us to safely navigate waters without constant manual steering. This autopilot not only saves energy but also enhances our ability to fully enjoy the experience on board. As avid adventurers who prioritize budget-friendliness, we highly recommend the CPT Autopilot to fellow sailors looking for an efficient solution.
The Adventure Continues
We hope you’ve enjoyed following along as we installed and reviewed the incredible CPT Autopilot. Stay tuned for upcoming adventures featuring this fantastic system, bringing a new level of autonomy to our voyages. Until then, keep exploring, and remember – no journey is too small!
If you are sailing on a budget but would love having an autopilot this is the one to consider. We have been using it for several months now all the way from the USA to the Bahamas and very satisfied with it.
If you like what you see don't forget to give us the thumbs up!
