Suggestion for auto helm

Suggestion for auto helm for 2005 28 TE flush deck w/raymarine C120. If possible I would like a Raymarine product. However $$ always talks and if there is a good substitution I am game. Had auto helm on my last boat and I MISS it

Garmin Reactor with Shadow Drive. Fully compatible with your raymarine electronics. I loved mine in the 28. Very simple and even had a remote. The shadow drive is nice because you can turn your wheel to avoid something floating without disengaging the autopilot. It can be set so it resumes its original course after x amount of seconds.
