about the 1.2/2.0 L Hydraulic Pump
The 1.2/2.0 L hydraulic pump steers your boat by interacting with the
hydraulic steering system, based on commands you enter using the
autopilot display unit. The pump is not included in the autopilot core
package box because the type of pump you use with your autopilot is
determined by the size and type of steering system on your boat.
