According to 61.51, you can not log SIC time unless the SIC is
required. Having an autopilot dis-requires the SIC, so you can not log it. You are certainly allowed to sit there and even perform the duties of an SIC, but since you aren't required, you cant log SIC.
But then again, it's your logbook. Log whatever you want.
