No, It did work very good but, it also only worked for 2 trips. They are fixing it so I gues we will see how it holds up. I have anether friend who has a Raymarine (not sure what model) on his Parker and he loves it. His has worked flawless for 4 years.

Installed it sat. Ran it sun. Very impressed nice to be able to steer just by turning the knob.
