Lowrance Outboard Cable Steer Pilot Pack (000-11749-001)
Unlock effortless, precision steering with the Lowrance Outboard Pilot Cable‑Steer Pack (00011749001) — a premium autopilot kit designed to integrate seamlessly with your boat’s outboard motor and HDS series display.
Built for serious anglers and boaters who demand both control and freedom, this all-in-one solution gives you the confidence to focus on your fishing or cruising while the system handles the steering.
Why this kit stands out
- Designed for single outboard setups on vessels 30 ft or less — take advantage of autopilot technology tailored to cable-steered motors.
- Works hand-in-glove with the Lowrance HDS Gen2 or Gen2 Touch displays to steer to a heading, waypoint, route or cursor.
- Advanced SmartSteer™ interface lets you switch easily between outboard motor control, trolling-motor (MotorGuide Xi5) control and electric-steer from your HDS screen.
- “One-touch” route creation: convert trails into routes and retrace your track back to the dock or favourite fishing spot. Pre-set turn patterns make trolling or fishing runs smoother and more efficient.
- Virtual Rudder Feedback (VRF) eliminates the need for a separate rudder position sensor, simplifying installation and reducing complexity.
- Certified splash-proof with IPx5 rating — built to withstand the marine environment.
- Backed by a 2 year limited warranty (plus eligibility for the Lowrance Advantage Service program) – ensuring your investment is protected.

Ideal For
Boaters who run a single outboard motor & cable-steer setup, who want autopilot precision without adding hydraulic complexity. If you’re fishing, trolling or simply cruising, this system keeps you on track so you can concentrate on the moment, not the helm.
Note: Your HDS® display (Gen2 or Gen2 Touch) must be updated to software version 3.5 or later to ensure compatibility with the autopilot functions.
With the Lowrance Outboard Pilot Cable-Steer Pack installed, you gain a powerful autopilot system that frees you from the wheel while maintaining precision, control and safety. Let the system hold your course, and let you focus on the catch.
