My 390 CPMY (1994) is fitted with a Ray Marine auto pilot. I am going to the DEFENDER annual sale and wanted to buy a new system, however I need to now what size the autopilot pump is, 1, 2, or 5?
Any ideas from the general public??

Re: AUto Pilot pump size
Really depends on your steering ram size but pretty sure you'll need the Type 1. If they're a Raymarine dealer, they should be able to tell you which unit you need but you'll have to provide some specs on your current equipment. I suspect type 1 will do for the ram I think you have and while it's not as important, your helm is likely a 1.7 unit. You can also go to Raymarine's site and look up the specs of each pump type. Here is a link to the different rams and what pump type you should use:

Re: AUto Pilot pump size
I concur with Viper. My steering ram is a 1.7 and the type one pump is all that is required for that size steering Ram.
