[C38] autopilot

The linear drive that I bought shouldn't add any friction to the steerig system.
The good thing is that I bought it new for just $80, when the real price is around $1500.
I bought without hesitation. If there's no possible way to install it, I just keep using the wheel drive, sell the linear drive, and make a boat unit for some other toys!!!
My first offshore trip is in January to Coco's island, so the better the boat is, the safer I'll sail!!
