I'm about to race single handed in the STYC.org race and I have a RAYMARINE ST1000+ TILLER PILOT but it needs mounting. Has anyone with a CP25 added this unit? Pictures? Thanks, Kirk

Pics below of ST2000 installation. I think this was my first installation. I had the extension mounted with wingnuts, so it would be easier to remove when not using the autopilot. I purchased another tiller and moved the extension to where it was more level with the pilot unit.

You may want to verify the rules to see if you can race with an autopilot. If I remember correctly, it is technically not legal. I know several racers, racing single handed, have asked for exceptions and received them.
