The joystick is the primary user interface for the Joystick Control

System. It offers the ultimate control of the vessel for docking and

maneuvering at slow speeds and is especially useful in conﬁned

or difﬁcult circumstances. It is quite intuitive to use as the boat

follows the actions of the handle. This section of the manual gives

a detailed description of all of its capabilities and how to get the

maximum beneﬁt from this powerful feature. The Joystick 360 Quick

Reference Guide, provided with the system, gives summary and

reminder information on its operation and should be kept on the

vessel at all times.

The joystick is spring loaded so it always returns to its center

position. When the joystick is active and in the center position, the

engines are in neutral and the throttles are at idle.

The joystick Take Command button will make the joystick active and

shut off the control head when it is pushed. The shift and throttle

controls must be in neutral to engage the joystick. When the joystick

is active, the Take Command light will be solid blue and the control

head lights will turn off.

While the joystick is active, the steering wheel will stiffen to prevent

usage and remind the user that it is disengaged.

The Boost button increases the engine RPM when pressed. It may

be activated any time the joystick is active.

Note: The A and C buttons are reserved for future use and not active

at this time.
