Can anyone tell he where your pump is looking located ? Not sure where to mount it.
Thank you !
 
I just purchased an autopilot. I have not installed it yet but I plan on installing the pump in the enclosure for the second station out on the deck
 
I had my installer put it behind the passenger seat on starboard side. He mounted the pump on a 1" thick piece of starboard so it won't sit in any water. Ran it last season with no problems. I can take a pic if you want next time down to boat. I bought all the custom cut hoses and extra fittings from International Marine.
 
I forgot I backed up my pictures from the phone on here.

How do you access the pump. Do you completely remove the passenger seat??
 
I have installed a raymarine av100 under helm fit good as to where the dealer told me to mount it u can hear it but it may have been a little to close to the compass but otherwise fit and was a easy mount.
 
My Lowrance pump did fit nicely in the second station housing

I have been following your recent postings on TheHullTruth and note that you are happy with the performance of your recently installed Raymarine EV-100 autopilot system. How long (hours) did it take to install and did you self install or have a professional do it? I am about to pull the trigger on purchasing that unit as the $300 rebate expires on Monday. Any and all comments from other members on this forum about the performance and installation of the RM EV-100 would be greatly appreciated. I will be using the unit for cruising and trolling.

Very happy I didn't waste $1500.00. It works perfectly & is warranted 3 years ( I use my boat year round) I had it installed as I didn't want to mess with bleeding 2 stations & the pump. (It took the dealer 5 times). Would be happy to answer any specific questions.
 
Hi, I've seen a couple of different places, from near the transom to under the helm. Is there a performance issue related to the distance? Do you need to service the AP pump? Also, where to you mount the compass if your unit came with one. Just curious.

Dave
