Tiller Steering

This method is most common on smaller sailing boats with tiller steering. An electrically operated ram is connected between the Tiller and the side of the cockpit area. By changing the length of the ram, the autopilot changes the position of the tiller. The smaller systems available, such as the Simrad TP10 are completely self contained with all the electronics and fluxgate compass in the ram housing.
