Providing a positive recommendation on the Raymarine X-5. When I had Rhapsody I replaced an ST1000 with the Raymarine X-5 with pictures here. It has much better control with a more powerful ram and the stabilized compass with the course computer drive the boat in more challenging conditions and sea states. I could single hand the boat and fly the spinnaker, doing a jybe using the optional Raymarine wireless remote. I also found it took less power than the ST1000 because the pilot didn't "hunt" trying to keep the boat on course.

Koos - please post the price you are offering this.

cost $1,200 in 2012 including control head, I will take $600.
I also have a white awlgripped carbon fiber spinnaker pole, also $1,200 in 2012, will take $600.
Full suite of original Barient winches in perfect condition, not sure what that is worth?
