Yamaha has announced the release of additional features on their game changing Helm Master EX joystick boat control system, further enhancing the capabilities of this industry-leading technology across single, twin, triple and quad outboard engine applications.
Helm Master EX offers boaters a completely integrated boat control system that makes getting to your fishing spot easier and unprecedented control over your craft once you arrive – using a combination of advanced outboard, digital steering, autopilot and joystick technologies.
Richard Shaw, NZ Marine Manager, – Yamaha Motor New Zealand, said, “Since the release of our Helm Master EX system, we have seen unprecedented demand for this cutting-edge technology, especially from fishing enthusiasts who are looking to up their game, using the most advanced boating and fishing technologies on the market.
“We are now taking this technology further with a number of new features and improvements that offer skippers more options and control over their outboard powered vessels,” Richard said.
Real world customer feedback has formed the basis of the Helm Master EX upgrades. This is particularly evident in the addition of the New Joystick Station. This new configuration allows the fit up of a second Joystick control without the requirement of a full steering helm and controls. This means additional joystick controls can be added away from the helm of the boat and placed in a position convenient to the skipper’s requirements.
