The SI-TEX SP-120 System with Rudder Feedback and Remote Mechanical Drive is a precision autopilot solution designed for serious anglers and boaters operating 1994 and newer Mercury inboard/outboard and Volvo gasoline engines. This integrated steering system allows for hands-free operation during long runs to fishing grounds, enabling users to focus on tackle preparation, electronics, or simply enjoying their time on the water.
Built to withstand the demanding marine environment, the SP-120 offers professional-grade autopilot reliability for both recreational and commercial operators. It combines rudder feedback sensing with remote mechanical drive technology, ensuring accurate course-holding even in challenging sea conditions. Unlike basic compass-only pilots, the SP-120 actively monitors the actual rudder position and adjusts steering inputs in real time, compensating for drift, wind, and water movement.
Owners of Mercury IO and Volvo gas-powered vessels will appreciate the plug-and-play compatibility that respects original equipment configurations. Installation requires standard marine electrical and mechanical integration, and professional setup is recommended to ensure proper calibration of rudder feedback sensors and drive linkage. This system is ideal for those looking to enhance their boating experience with reliable autopilot technology.
