Vetus bow thruster integrated in joystick control systems for boat docking

Dock and manouevre like a pro

Whether experienced or novice operators, the idea of having to manouevre your vessel into a tight berth or a narrow fairway under less than perfect conditions can take the shine off even the sunniest day. For many years, the use of bow and stern thrusters compensated, allowing for greater control and precise corrections. Likewise, joystick technology brought control at your fingertips broadening even novice operators sense of control.

Recent announcements have highlighted new options to command outboards and thrusters together, seamlessly operated from one joystick control. The good news for boatbuilders and boat owners is that this latest combined technology is available on the market. These integrated solutions ensure full control, minimizing the prospect of damage or injury due to handling errors and mishaps. Boat handlers can relax and trust the boat will maneuver as they wish, even in challenging conditions.
