just my 2 cents but put hydraulic steering on first then add auto pilot to that system - more pricey but better in the end

Yep.  I have a similar boat.  A 1997 Bayliner 2252 Express Cruiser hard top.  4 years ago I installed a Raymarine Sportpilot.  While it did do the job, it wasn't as nice as I wanted it.  It was loud, constantly running, and after 10hrs of trolling it got annoying to listen to.  Furthermore, each year I had to send the SportPilot back to Raymarine and have the clutch pads and bearings replaced.  

 

This year I decided to switch my boat over to hydraulic steering.  The job really isn't that difficult.  I have an in-depth thread in this forum that walks you through exactly how I did it.  It is night and day difference.
