It is a strong and reliable system and I use it a lot - I singlehand 99% of the time.

Haven't tried it in bigger winds (excess of 35kts) but I would think it could handle it just fine.

Mine also has a windvane servo to steer off te wind rather than on a course. Haven't tried that yet.

Yes, I would recommend it.

The picture of your autohelm analog looks similar to the CPT and I am probably going to get this style of autopilot. Seems simpler and less dollars. I will poke around the internet at the autohelm analogs to. Thanks.
