    Why is my Simrad Autopilot System making the boat go off course?
    • M
      Michelle MorrisAug 25, 2025
      If the boat is off course when using the Simrad Autopilot System, it could be due to the boat's heading being outside the fixed off-course limit or extreme weather conditions, or too slow speed. To resolve this: 1. Check the steering parameters (Rudder, Autotrim, Seastate filter). 2. Increase the Rudder value. 3. Increase boat speed, if possible, or steer by hand.
