Description
Choose your kit: GHC 50 + Shadow Drive (the autopilot switches to standby when you take the wheel), GHC 50 only, or the Starter Pack without control unit – for boats that already have a Garmin chartplotter or GHC control.
Garmin Compact Reactor™ 40 Hydraulic Autopilot with Shadow Drive™ and GHC™ 50

Key features:
