While we are on the subject. Does anyone have any of the components for a Raymarine ST 6000+ autohelm for sale.
I am told by Raymarine that the ST6000, 6000+ 7000 and 8000 are interchangeable. I have the ram drive.
I have a problem with my ST 6000+ and realise how important auto steering is to a (mostly) single hander. Having some (used) spares might be a logical step.
