Raymarine ev 200 sail autopilot sizing/considerations/thoughts

The ev 200 sail is rated for boats up to 22000lbs displacement. Per the literature it says to add 20% to tha actual displacement.
I have a downeaster 32 its listed at 17,000kbs displacement. If i add 20% to that i get 20,400lbs displacement. Im gearing up for cruising so the boat wil be heavily loaded.
I seem to be under the 22000 max rating. But close to it. Does sny one have any opinions as far as if this will be over working? Do i need to go up? I like to always err on the side of more money and higher ratings as to not overwork equipment. Any opinions or testimonials?
