Outboard Rigging & Accessories
Fully Integrated Boat Control System Handling a boat with more than one outboard* has never been as easy as it is now. Because with Helm Master’s intuitive joystick, single lever engine control, fully automatic trim system and touchbutton speed control, confident boat handling just became your speciality! It really is that simple, because with this fully integrated drive-by-wire system, relaxed and intuitive boat handling comes naturally - even manoeuvering and docking become a real pleasure to look forward to. * Helm Master is compatible with twin and triple installations of Yamaha 4-stroke V8 (F350A) and 4.2L V6 engines.
STATION SELECTOR The touch of a button selects 2nd station operation.
TRIM ASSIST Press this button and Helm Master automatically adjusts the engine trim to your preferred setting as you accelerate or decelerate.
SPEED CONTROL Once the desired rpm is reached, hold it by pressing the Speed Control - then throttle up or down with the touch of a button.
FREE THROTTLE Allows the selected engine to be throttled up when the shift function is disengaged.
SINGLE LEVER CONTROL This button synchronises the control of up to three outboards with a single lever.
CENTRE ENGINE Press the Center Engine button to run only that engine when trolling - or in no-wake zones. (Triple engine installations only)
TWIN AND TRIPLE SWITCH PANELS Just one panel controls up to three outboards. Engage all engines with a single key fob and use the 'All Start' button (triple switch panel version only) to start them simultaneously. KEYLESS START The swipe of a single, keyless fob engages multiple engines - the ultimate in streamlined convenience. Each Helm Master™ system allows for up to four RFID key fobs
360° DIRECTIONAL MOTION AND REAL-TIME RESPONSE With the central pivot point near the operator and the helm, movement emanates from this location in 360° concentric rings. Place pressure on the joystick in a given direction and the engines respond instantly. A light push or twist of the joystick delivers a slower-paced movement with minimal thrust, while more pressure increases thrust and movement.
NOT JUST A JOYSTICK! Helm Master integrates all these key functions: • Steering • Throttle • Shifting • Trim • Ignition • Engine & boat data • Security
... AND THERE’S MORE • Easy-to-read HD 5” LCD display • Keyless electronic ignition • Anti-theft system (RFID keyfob) • Speed-sensitive steering friction
MOVING LATERALLY Push the joystick to the left or right and your boat will respond effortlessly. This is especially helpful when docking in tight spaces. More force on the joystick will deliver more thrust and directional movement. High and Standard thrust modes allow you to adjust the thrust level quickly - to suit the conditions.
Some restrictions apply. Available on selected twin and triple Yamaha outboard installations and only on new boat packages manufactured by participating boat builders and sold by Authorised Dealers.
