Keys to a Solid Autopilot InstallationRegardless of manufacturer type, there are impor-tant factors that vary from vessel to vessel wheninstalling an autopilot. session will cover drive se-lection, rudder feedback selection, junction box se-lection and heading integration along with otherkey components—plus basic troubleshooting of au-topilot failures.

Digital Switching MFDs are evolving into digital switch panels. ses-sion will overview the current offerings for digitalswitching of virtually anything on the boat thatuses aC or DC voltage. includes discussion of var-ious components needed to complete these com-plex installations utilizing the nMea 2000backbone.

Remote Vessel Monitoring & Security Checking on our houses and cars remotely is nota futuristic concept. the power is out, the automo-bile has been moved, the thermostat has disen-gaged—these bits of information are fed to oursmart phones so we can act quickly. the peoplewho expect this level of convenience in their dailylives are the same customers who want that levelof service on their boats. session will review what’savailable, from water sensors to video surveillanceand from preventing unauthorized usage to seeinghow cold the fridge is. You will learn how to retro-fit or manufacture a vessel to take boaters’ de-mands for remote monitoring into consideration.
