For applications that require precise heading control, our higher-performance Reactor 40 models are recommended. Compact Reactor uses a gear pump design with limited performance relative to similar flow piston pumps. Not recommended for power assist installs, engines above 150 horsepower or boats with more than 12-degree deadrises. Mount pump within 6′ of the steering cylinder for best results.3Auto Guidance is for planning purposes only and does not replace safe navigation operationsEngineering enhancements are ongoing and may not be reflected in the pictures, videos and specifications.Specs
