Just saw this. Ap is a must IMO. I have very good work done by Chris electronics in New Bedford. They do a lot of the commerical and yard support for the fleet there.
Good luck. Who ever installs it make sure they come out for a ride on the boat afterwards to tune it for your boat. There is a lot more to ap's that just plugging it in, there is a bit of fiddling with parameters to get them to behave right and work their best.
Make sure it works for multiple waypoints not just straight line mode and the zig zagging is minimized
Once you have it set up you will say.... Why the hell did I wait so long to do this??? Esp at night or reduced visibility
Good luck with it
