Joystick—Basic Operation
The joystick offers intuitive control of your boat during low speed and docking maneuvers. Engine speed is limited from idle to
approximately 1700‑2500 RPM in this mode, depending on vessel and propulsion application, to prevent excessive prop wash or
unacceptable boat dynamics during maneuvers. DOCK mode reduces this upper range to approximately 1000‑1200 RPM and
will be discussed more in the DOCK mode section. This RPM range is mainly due to engine horsepower. The levers must be used
for vessel maneuvering if environmental conditions require more thrust than the range listed above.

Joystick and typical location
Though joystick operation is easy and intuitive, you should avoid using it until you have the opportunity to become familiar with
the vessel's handling characteristics while operating the vessel with the joystick in open water. Thereafter, you should occasionally
practice operating without the joystick in case the joystick becomes inoperable.
Both engines must be running and both ERC levers must be in neutral for the joystick to operate.
Operating With an Auxiliary Joystick (If Equipped)
An auxiliary joystick located at a separate station called an auxiliary joystick station offers the same control of the boat as does a
helm joystick. The operator may transfer to an auxiliary joystick station after meeting certain control requirements at the main
helm.
There may be multiple auxiliary joystick stations located on the vessel. Each auxiliary joystick station is equipped with a joystick,
an E‑stop switch, and a control pad.
The auxiliary joystick station control pad includes:
•
Indicator lights for drive train status (two lights for dual)
• A fault (alarm) indicator light and horn
• A transfer button equipped with an indicator light
