I have the TP10 mounted by the book. If I were to remount it, I would install the drive mounts further forward (relative to the boat). This would give a slower response because the AP arm would need to travel further, but the load on the helm is just so great that it would give my little light duty TP10 more of a fighting chance. It's just not a super heavy duty AP like the inboard units. It doesn't love that big load. I think the AP load of the boat due to the unbalanced rudder is more like a 40 footer for the purposes of rudder loading
