Take a look at the new Raymarine Sportpilot. Relatively inexpensive and will work with any steering system.

Ditto on the Ray Marine Sport Pilot.
I recently installed one on a friends 20' fishing boat with 150hp outboard and 9.9 kicker.
Easy install and works great.
Great price too.

I'm looking to add similar setup to my 2004 280DA T4.3 but Ray Marine Sport Pilot seems to have been discontinued for some reason. My steering is mechanical instead of hydraulic so this cuts down on autopilot choices.

Any suggestions on GPS screen that can also indicate "Smart Craft" stuff (GPH, depth, temp's etc)?
