Simrad WP32 Wheelpilot Autopilot Sailboat NMEA2000 NMEA0183.

$450 + shipping. Please PM if you are interested. I am happy to communicate via email, text, or phone after that.

I’ve used this Simrad WP32 wheelpilot for the last 5 years on my Hunter Legend 35.5 sailboat. I’ve used it in lots of wind and sea state conditions motoring and sailing all over the Puget Sound, San Juan Islands, and the west coast of Vancouver Island. It has always worked and has given me no trouble. I am planning on heading offshore, so I decided to install a quadrant connected autopilot for a little more strength in a large following sea or with unbalanced sail trim.


This wheelpilot is very easy to install. Basically, remove your wheel, clamp it to your pedestal, reinstall wheel, connect power. From there, just do the quick calibration and it is ready to use to steer to a heading. It does support Simnet and NMEA2000, so it can also steer by wind, a chartplotter course, or an external compass, but connecting these items is optional.
