Raymarine Autopilot Linear Drive

  • Seller:  Fred Guptill
  • Location: Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

AutopilotBase
AutopilotUnit

Raymarine 12 Volt Type 2 autopilot linear drive.
Refurbished. Good working order. Very powerful below-decks autopilot drive unit. For boats up to 44,000 lb displacement. This drive moves the rudder directly by attaching to the Rudder Quadrant or Tiller Arm. Powerful thrust, fast hard-over time and quiet operation. Low backdrive force minimizes the effect on the boat’s steering when the autopilot is in standby.

  • Peak thrust: 480 kg (1,050 lb)
  • Maximum stroke: 400 mm (16")
  • Maximum rudder torque: 14,700 in-lb

This unit was installed in my 36 foot sailboat. It performed flawlessly for 20,000+ sea miles. I had to replace it because a fitting broke. The fitting has since been repaired, so now this unit is surplus to my needs.

Asking C$1100. These drives sell for C$3,000 new.

Please email Fred Guptill for further details...

Battery Bank 900 Ah

  • Seller:  Stefano
  • Location: Greece
  • Date: February 24
Battery Bank for Sale

I am replacing my lead acid "TRACTION" battery bank with lithium, so this bank is now for sale.

It consists of 12x 2V, 450Ah 'Traction' batteries, designed for daily discharge on forklifts.
Not your usual lead battery for sure!

I have it connected 6 in series to get 2 banks of 12V, 450Ah, then connected the 2 in parallel to get 900Ah at 12V.
They could be connected all in series to get 450Ah at 24V.

They also come with an automatic Hydration kit that automatically fills all cells with fresh water when needed and a glassed plywood box if required.

The boat is near Athens, so you can either pick up directly there or I can arrange shipping in Europe if you want to negotiate the cost...

Please email Stefano for further details...
