Evolution Autopilot
The EV-100 wheel pilot comprises a fully enclosed wheel-drive for simple
installation and superb autopilot performance and for a boat up to 16,000 lb displacement
- Quick and easy installation
- Fits most types of wheel
- Simple robust clutch engagement mechanism.
Evolution Autopilot
Includes:
- EV-1 Sensor Core
- p70 Autopilot Control Head
- ACU-100 Actuator Control Unit
- Wheel Drive
- Evolution Cabling Kit

No calibration required!
Engineered for simplicity, Evolution autopilots eliminate the need for
complicated set up and calibration. Once Evolution is installed, getting started
is as easy as switching the autopilot on.
Thanks to the intelligent EV sensor core,
the autopilot automatically evolves and adapts to your vessel’s steering
characteristics without any user adjustments.
Evolution AI™
The culmination of Raymarine’s 30 years of autopilot expertise, FLIR
Systems research and development, and advanced aerospace guidance
technology, Evolution AI™ control algorithms deliver a new level of accurate
autopilot control.
This innovative breakthrough in autopilot intelligence enables Evolution
autopilots to perceive their environment and then instantly calculate and
evolve steering commands to maximise performance. The result is precise and
confident course keeping, regardless of vessel speed or sea conditions.

The EV Sensor Core
At the centre of every Evolution system is the intelligent EV sensor core, a
9-axis sensor that monitors vessel motion in all three dimensions. The
innovative EV sensor core combines advanced solid-state sensors with the
Evolution autopilot processor into a single easy-to-install housing.
Mount the EV sensor core above or below decks, the rugged enclosure is fully
sealed and built to IPX6 and IPX7 waterproofing and submersion standards.
EV Sensor Core Benefits
- Precision monitoring of heading, pitch, roll, and yaw allowing the
autopilot to evolve instantly as sea conditions and vessel dynamics change.
- Flexible installation options. Mount above or below deck.
- Simple SeaTalkng connectivity to the
control head and ACU.
- Solid state sensor technology delivers dynamic accuracy to within 2
degrees in all conditions.
- Auto-compensation for on board magnetic fields and reliable heading
accuracy in the northern and southern extremes.
- Fast and reliable heading data for MARPA, radar overlay, and heading modes
on Raymarine multifunction displays.
Autopilot Control Unit (ACU)
The rugged ACU (Actuator Control Unit) delivers reliable autopilot drive
power and also provides power to the SeaTalk
ng
bus. Choose the ACU that fits your steering system type:
|
|
Supported Drives
|
|
ACU-200
|
Type 1 Raymarine hydraulic, linear and rotary mechanical
drives
|
|
ACU-300
|
For solenoid controlled steering systems and Raymarine
constant running hydraulic pumps
|
|
ACU-400
|
Type 2 and 3 Raymarine hydraulic, linear, and rotary
mechanical drives
|
Your Evolution Autopilot System
|
EV-1 Systems with Raymarine Drives
The EV-1 is designed for Evolution mechanical and
hydraulic autopilot systems. SeaTalkng networking enables a single cable
connection for power and data to the Evolution ACU (actuator control unit)
and extended SeaTalkng and NMEA2000 networks.
|
|
EV-2 for Steer-By-Wire Propulsion
Designed for the latest drive-by-wire steering system, the
EV-2 connects directly to Raymarine’s SeaTalk
ng
bus and also features a dedicated CAN Bus port for direct connection to
steer-by-wire steering systems like ZF Pod Drives, Volvo IPS* and Teleflex
Optimus systems. The single CAN Bus connection to the EV-2 eliminates the
need for an ACU, further simplifying installation.
|
and p70R Autopilot Control Heads
Complete your Evolution autopilot system with a p70 or p70R autopilot
control. The p70 and p70R control heads feature vibrant colour displays and are
powered by Raymarine’s intuitive LightHouse user interface.
LightHouse organises all options into simple menu structures and with
Evolution’s quick setup process you will be up and running in minutes.
Designed for sailing yachts, the p70 offers simple 1 and 10 degree direct course
change push buttons.
The p70R features a rotary dial control for power boaters. Use the rotary
dial for menu and course changes or activate power steer mode and steer manually
right from the p70R.
