The Simrad AP70 MK2 Basic Pack represents a professional-grade autopilot solution engineered for vessels requiring reliable, hands-free navigation across extended operations. Built for maritime professionals—commercial operators, charter captains, and tactical maritime units—this system delivers the core autopilot functionality needed for precision course-keeping and waypoint navigation without the overhead of fully integrated systems. The AP70 MK2 platform is trusted by operators who demand accuracy and repeatability in dynamic maritime environments where autopilot failure is not an option.
This basic pack configuration includes the AP70 MK2 control head, AC70 pump unit, and RF300 wireless remote, delivering integrated autopilot command and execution across your vessel's steering system. The control head offers intuitive navigation menus and real-time course feedback, while the AC70 pump actively engages your steering mechanism with calibrated hydraulic or electrical control, ensuring crisp, repeatable course corrections. The RF300 wireless remote extends operational flexibility, allowing helmsmen to adjust heading and autopilot modes from any vantage point on deck—critical for maneuvering in confined waters or during tactical positioning. Note that activation requires a separate drive unit compatible with your vessel's steering type, ensuring the system integrates seamlessly with your existing helm configuration.
The AP70 MK2 Basic Pack is ideal for operators transitioning from manual steering to autopilot capability without committing to high-end integrated navigation suites. Installation demands precise drive unit selection based on your vessel's steering mechanism—hydraulic ram, linear actuator, or rotary feedback encoder—making pre-purchase consultation with your systems integrator essential. Operators benefit from reduced fatigue on extended transits, improved fuel efficiency through optimized course-keeping, and enhanced safety during single-handed operations or rough-water navigation. Weighing 11 lbs for the core pack, integration is straightforward on most vessels 28 feet and above with standard marine power architecture.
