Common Question of Raymarine Type 2 Long
What is the Type 2 Drive?
The Raymarine Type 2 Long Linear Drive is a 12V autopilot drive for compatible linear-steering systems. It provides mechanical steering movement rather than anchor handling. Confirm rudder loads, stroke, mounting geometry, control computer, feedback, battery, and marine autopilot controller compatibility before installation.
What voltage does it use?
It uses 12 volts according to the listing. Confirm battery capacity, cable gauge, fuse or circuit breaker, current draw, polarity, grounding, control connections, and installation requirements before wiring. Correct electrical protection supports dependable steering operation.
Does it operate an anchor?
No. The Type 2 Long Linear Drive controls compatible steering and does not operate a gypsy, drum, chain, or anchor rope. It is not an anchor windlass component. Use separate equipment for marine anchor retrieval.
