Raymarine EV-200 Power Pilot Hydraulic Autopilot Pack, For 80-230cc Rams, 12V Type 1 Pump, NMEA 2000, p70Rs, EV-1, ACU-200

Overview

The Raymarine T70157 is a complete EV-200 Power Pilot pack for medium to large powerboats with hydraulic steering. It pairs the EV-1 heading sensor, ACU-200 actuator control unit, p70Rs autopilot control head, and a 12 V Type 1 hydraulic pump for boats with outboard or inboard hydraulic steering cylinder capacities from 80 to 230 cc, or 4.9 to 14.0 cu in.

This system is built for skippers who want steady course keeping on longer runs, trolling passes, coastal cruising, or offshore legs where constant hand steering gets tiring. The EV-1 sensor tracks vessel motion on 9 axes and feeds the pilot with heading, pitch, roll, and yaw data, while the ACU-200 controls the hydraulic pump that moves fluid through the steering system.

The pack runs on a 12 V dc supply, with an operating voltage range of 10.8 V dc to 15.6 V dc and a maximum continuous drive current output of 15 A at supply voltage. It connects into Raymarine SeaTalkng and NMEA 2000 style networks, making it a strong fit for boats already using modern Raymarine navigation displays and instruments.

Key features

• Complete EV-200 hydraulic autopilot pack with EV-1 sensor core, ACU-200 actuator control unit, p70Rs control head, and 12 V Type 1 hydraulic pump.
• Matches hydraulic steering cylinder capacities from 80 to 230 cc, or 4.9 to 14.0 cu in, so steering ram volume should be checked before purchase.
• EV-1 9-axis sensor monitors heading, pitch, roll, and yaw for course keeping that adapts to vessel motion and sea conditions.
• ACU-200 supplies hydraulic drive control with maximum continuous output of 15 A at supply voltage.
• 12 V dc system operation with a 10.8 V dc to 15.6 V dc operating voltage range.
• p70Rs control head uses a rotary control knob and LightHouse interface for powerboat helm operation.
• Supports common pilot modes including Auto, Standby, Pattern, Track, Wind Vane, Power Steer, and Jog Steer when the required system data is available.
• SeaTalkng and NMEA 2000 style network integration supports communication with compatible Raymarine instruments, displays, and navigation sources.
• ACU physical size is 180 mm wide, 140 mm high, and 52 mm deep, which helps when planning mounting space below deck.

Compatibility and fit

The main fit check is hydraulic steering ram capacity. This Type 1 hydraulic pack is intended for steering cylinders from 80 to 230 cc, so it should not be selected only by boat length or displacement. The steering cylinder volume is the number that confirms whether the included pump is the right match.

It is intended for hydraulic steering on powered boats, including many outboard and inboard installations. Boats with mechanical cable steering, sailboat linear drives, or hydraulic systems outside the stated cylinder capacity range need a different pilot drive configuration.

Installation and setup

The hydraulic pump connects into the boat's hydraulic steering lines, and the ACU-200 controls the pump as part of the Evolution autopilot system. The EV-1 sensor can be mounted above or below deck in a suitable location away from magnetic interference, while the p70Rs control head belongs at the helm where the skipper can reach it easily.

Electrical planning should account for the 12 V dc supply, the 15 A maximum continuous drive current output, and clean network routing for SeaTalkng or compatible NMEA 2000 style connections. The ACU drive electronics are rated IPx6, while the connector panel is rated IPx2, so below deck placement with protection from direct water exposure is the right approach.

Use cases on board

This autopilot is a practical match for powerboat owners who run longer distances, fish repeated tracks, or want steadier steering while monitoring navigation, radar, or engine data at the helm. It is especially useful on hydraulic-steered boats where the skipper wants the pilot to handle course keeping while still leaving manual control available whenever conditions call for it.
