Description

The Raymarine Evolution EV-100 Tiller Pilot (T70153) brings 9-axis autopilot intelligence to tiller-steered sailboats up to 6,000 kg (13,200 lbs) fully laden displacement. The drive attaches between the cockpit structure and the tiller, can be removed and stowed in seconds when racing or leaving the boat, and is driven by the ACU-100 actuator control unit. The EV-1 Sensor Core holds course to within +/- 2 degrees and adapts continuously to sea state without any calibration routine.

The pack contains the EV-1 Sensor Core, ACU-100, p70s push-button control head, Evolution SeaTalkng cabling kit and the tiller drive (installation instructions document 87279). Wind vane steering and AutoTack are available with a networked Raymarine wind instrument, and the pilot can also be commanded from a compatible Axiom chartplotter. A version without the control head is available as T70249.

Which Evolution pack suits my boat?
Match the pack to your steering system: EV-100 Wheel or Tiller for cockpit-drive sailboats, EV-100, EV-150 or EV-200 Power for hydraulic steering depending on cylinder capacity, EV-200 Sail for below-decks mechanical steering, EV-300 for solenoid-controlled systems, EV-400 for Type 2 and Type 3 drives on larger vessels, and EV-DBW for drive-by-wire steering.
Does an Evolution autopilot need calibration?
No. Set-up is automatic: the rudder gain, rudder damping, counter rudder and compass calibration routines required by earlier autopilots are no longer necessary, and the system keeps refining itself as you use the boat. This is documented in the EV-1 installation instructions (87472).
Do I need a rudder angle reference sensor?
Raymarine highly recommends the rudder angle reference transducer (M81105) on every Evolution system for optimum performance, and it is essential on ACU-300 solenoid installations. The EV-400 Sail and Power packs include a rotary rudder feedback unit, and the ACU-300 ships with one.
How do I check the displacement ratings?
Use the vessel's fully laden displacement, which Raymarine notes is often around 20 percent above the designed displacement, when comparing your boat against a drive or pack rating.
Can I control the autopilot from my chartplotter?
Yes. Compatible controllers include the Axiom, Axiom+, Axiom Pro, Axiom 2 Pro, Axiom XL and Axiom 2 XL chartplotter families as well as the p70s and p70Rs pilot heads. Axiom 2 Pro and Axiom 2 XL need LightHouse 4 v4.4.70 or later; earlier families are supported per the compatibility tables in document 87472.
