How we picked
The pool holds 7 Raymarine EV-200 autopilot listings, all from the EV-200 model line. The rule used is: listings whose title names the EV-200 model line. The autopilots are compared on stated details and live prices. The ordering rule ranks picks first by whether the title names both the drive and the control head in the box (or a tiller pilot with built-in keypad), then those that name one of the two, then those that name neither, and inside each tier by the order in the pool file. No price, popularity, or value ranking is used.
How to choose
Start with the steering you already have
The first decision for an EV-200 autopilot is matching the boat's own steering. The listings state steering types such as hydraulic or linear drive. Confirm the boat's steering system on the maker's page and with the listing before choosing.
Sail or power
The EV-200 line appears in both sail and power listings. Some titles name the boat type, such as 'Sailboat Pack' or 'Power Pilot.' Match the stated boat type to the vessel. If the title does not state it, the seller has not said it.
Complete pack or core pack
A complete pack names the drive in the box, such as the hydraulic drive unit. A core pack does not name a drive, meaning the boat already has one or the drive is chosen separately. Read the listing for the contents.
Control head in the box or bought separately
Some titles name the control head, such as P70 or P70R, meaning it is included. Others do not name a control head, so it is bought separately. The title is the only evidence for what is in the box.
Reading the model line
The EV-200 model line is a name on the listing. It does not tell you which drive or control head fits your boat. Use the stated details and the maker's page to confirm compatibility.
What this guide leaves out (and why)
This guide compares autopilots on stated details and live prices. It does not claim course-holding accuracy, power draw, or fit for a specific boat size, because the catalogue has no data for them. Check the maker's page and a qualified installer for those.
Questions
Does this guide say which boat size an EV-200 autopilot suits?
No. The catalogue has no data on boat length, displacement, or hull type. The listings state only the model line, steering, boat type, and whether the drive or control head is in the box. For fit, check the maker's page and a qualified installer.
What does 'drive not included' mean in the EV-200 listings?
It means the title does not name a drive or pump in the box. The boat already has a drive, or the owner chooses one separately for the steering system. Read the listing for the exact contents.
Can I install an EV-200 autopilot myself?
This guide does not say. The catalogue has no data on installation time or ease. The maker's page and a qualified installer are the places to check for installation requirements.
How are the EV-200 picks ranked?
Picks are ranked first by whether the title names both the drive and the control head in the box, then those that name one of the two, then those that name neither. Inside each tier, the order follows the pool file. Prices do not affect the ranking.
What is the difference between the EV-200 and other model lines?
This guide covers only the EV-200 model line. It does not compare EV-200 with other lines, because the catalogue has no data on what one line does better than another. The model line is a name on the listing.
