We are excited to finally reveal our new autopilot with fish finder and return to swim for our Lake Reaper Bait Boats!

The new Autopilot allows you to save your baiting spots (up to 500!) and then at the press of a button on your phone screen using the app, your Lake Reaper bait boat will sail to your selected spots without you having to control it with the handset! Our Autopilot also has a built in fish finder for measuring the depth and mapping the lake and finding fish. It also has 1 click return to swim, meaning at the flick of a switch on your handset, your boat will return to your saved ‘Home’ spot, allowing you to set up your rods etc whilst the boat sails back to you.

Key Features:

1. Autopilot Navigation: Experience effortless operation with the autopilot system. Select your saved baiting spots or points of interest and let the bait boat navigate to the chosen spot without controlling it with your handset, allowing you to focus on other important tasks, like setting up your fishing gear or relaxing by the water.

2. Return to Home Function: Peace of mind is just a flick away with the innovative return to home feature. Activate this function at any time on either the app or using a switch on the handset and the bait boat will automatically return to the saved home point. The home point is automatically set when you power up the boat but can also be changed using the app. You are also able to use the ‘Return to Swim’ feature without the app. When flicking the switch on the handset the boat will automatically return to the home position.

3. Integrated Fish Finder: Maximize your chances of a successful catch with the onboard fish finder. Equipped with advanced sonar technology, our integrated fish finder detects fish activity beneath the surface aswell as mapping the lake, helping you identify hotspots with precision. Real-time data ensures you make informed decisions about where to drop you line and bait.

4. Survey Mode: Select a number of positions of the lake on the map you would like to survey and let the boat sail to these spots in a sequence.

5. Split screen mode: Choose between full screen of the GPS, fish finder or split screen to see both screens at the same time.

 

The features of this autopilot/fish finder unit are operated using an app on a mobile phone or tablet which has either android or Apple apps on. You can still control your boat with your handset and cancel any routes or journeys at any time to regain control of your boat with your handset. You will also still require your handset to operate your hopper and drop your bait. A phone mount is included with this package to put onto your DE-108 handset.

​

You have the option of 2 different maps. General map or satalite map. both can be seen in the autopilot photos on this listing.
