    Well unfortunately most of the gear for the project has been packed for the house repairs, that we are still waiting for, and looks like we will be waiting longer for since Fletchers/EQR have dropped the ball 5th time running!

    Pretty sure the factory will retrofit a GPS control unit. Shouldn't be too difficult to DIY one if you have electronics bent.

    yes i thought they might but one would assume that it would come with a hefty price tag looking at some of the prices of their other products on the website!
    Did you ever have any luck with making up your own kontiki?

    Been too busy or broken to get very far. Plan was to attack it during 'lockdown', but that has been even busier than usual.
