After 20 hours in 3 days at the helm to and from Bahamas I would like to find a working and simple older autopilot. Please advise

Check eBay for used marine gear. (And new, bought tons of stuff for good prices there)
I am looking for a new Autopilot for an Albin 28.
Guessing $4-5k, Simrad perhaps, but open to other ideas.(got a Port Supply kind of discount @ West Marine)
Garmin plotter and Furuno fish finder on the boat and I thinking of buying.
Not sure I need to hook up to a plotter however, heading-hold is just fine.

I managed to pick up everything except the pump second hand for £450. I bought the pump direct from the manufacturers for £180. Once connected to the gps plotter, an auto pilot is an auto pilot!
