EP 44: Installing Raymarine's Autopilot & Integration to your B&G NMEA 2000 Backbone - The easy way!

In this episode we walk you through the unboxing of our Raymarine Evolution Wheel Autopilot, the installation of the Wheel component and the wiring of the electronics that support it. One thing that we found out through talking to Raymarine is that you do not need to use the SeaTalk network. You can actually connect this system directly into a NMEA 2000 Backbone. We are only covering the installation on this video and the basic setup. I will do another video describing the configuration and how we make Raymarine talk to our B&G Vulcan Chartplotter.
