Installing a B&G Triton 2 Autopilot and T2 Pilot Ram on a Northshore 38 using a bespoke tiller arm which is removable if the emergency steering tiller is required.

Really nice job on the B&G Autopilot, I am just in the process of updating all my instruments to Triton2.

Thanks for the feedback. Have been very happy with B&G as a system.

Great job of the installation. I am the new owner of a NS38 based in Hobart and would like upgrade to the same. Is there anything you would do differently in hindsight? I wonder if we could have a discussion at some point. Cheers Danny

Hi Danny. Congratulations on becoming a NS38 owner! At this stage the only thing I can say I would do differently would be to have made the upgrade far sooner - it has transformed the boat and made longer short-handed trips viable. Very happy with the B&G system and happy to discuss if you have any questions. Cheers.
