Simplified vessel handling through joystick control The ZF JMS™ allows the captains of twin-engine motor yachts, cruisers, and sport fishing boats, with traditional shaft-line propulsion to easily maneuver the vessel in complex docking situations. Interfaced with the ZF SmartCommand™ electronic control system, ZF JMS™ integrates sophisticated functions like iAnchor™ to keep the vessel on station at a given position, with the press of a button. Advantages Joystick vessel control at low speed Easy maneuvering in tight spaces through joystick interface Keeps vessel automatically in position against wind and current Works with traditional propeller shaft-line systems Function It is possible to install up to 6 joystick stations enabling maneuvering of the boat from any location.
