Yamaha’s new Helm Master EX integrated boat control system takes everything you thought you knew about joystick control and kicks it up a notch. The joystick system is now available for single through quad applications and has been redesigned with new smooth-shifting software.
The enhanced autopilot feature called DriftPoint Track allows you to set track points to your final destination. Once they’re in place and the boat is in neutral, all you have to do is sit back and relax. Other new features include an electronic key switch, as well as a keyless ignition fob.
“The new joystick option, which is the same as that used on multi-outboard systems, allows boaters who desire single-outboard power to enjoy the majority of the benefits associated with multi-outboard Helm Master EX applications,” says Ben Speciale, president of Yamaha Marine U.S. Business Unit.
