Was looking for a new auto pilot when down at Southhampton Boat Show but it seems that the toothed belt and remote motor as used by Navco (which by the way gave excellent service in my last yacht) has now been replaced by a dreadful looking contraption with an integral motor and keypad, the keypad being on the wrong side of the dammed wheel.

In any case even if I could put up with the keypad on the wrong side of the wheel, I do not have enough clearance between the wheel and the instrumnet consul to which the wheel is fitted.

Does anyone know of a chandler or supplier who has one of the old WP5000 belt drive units in stock
