Raymarine Mechanical Linear Drive Unit - Type 1: Short Shaft Linear Drive 12V
Mechanical Linear Drives are Raymarine's most commonly used drive types for sailing vessels. Mechanical linear drives provide powerful thrust, fast hard-over times and quiet operation. Mounted below decks, the linear drive moves the rudder directly by pushing the tiller arm or a rudder quadrant.
A linear drive unit connects to the rudder stock via an independent tiller arm. Accessory fittings from your steering manufacturer may be required. Must be able to back-drive steering system from the rudder.
