BRP has teamed up with SeaStar Solutions (formerly Teleflex) to offer a joystick control system for Evinrude outboards. The system is an adaptation of the SeaStar Optimus 360 joystick control that allows it to function with the BRP/Evinrude ICON digital throttle-and-shift remote control. It will be offered for any Evinrude V6 outboard model, but only for boats running twin engines. BRP debuted the system at the 2013 Miami International Boat Show, installed on a 32-foot 7-inch Andros Offshore 32 powered by a pair of Evinrude E-TEC 250 motors. We reported on the introduction of the Optimus 360 system at the 2012 Miami show, and the version that will be offered for Evinrude motors uses the same power steering helm and SeaStar Smart Cylinder steering rams, which are equipped with magnetic sensors that feed steering position data back to the electronic control module (ECM) that manages the system. The key difference is that the BRP system replaces the digital-to-cable throttle/shift actuator used on the original Optimus 360 with an interface to the BRP ICON control. For safety reasons, that ICON control uses its own electronic protocol, rather than the NMEA standard common to most other marine electronics, which is built into this version of the Optimus 360 system and makes it specific to Evinrude motors.

This week our boatlife brings us to Stromboli in the Aeolian Islands, where we are anchored right next to Megayacht Feadship - formerly known as Steve Jobs' Yacht 'Venus'. We realized that Italy is not just a sailing destination for charter boats and cruisers but also a stopover for many superyacht owners, who want to get a glimpse of the volcanoes and beautiful coastline of Lipari, Vulcano, Salina, Stromboli, Filicudi, Alicudi and Panarea. I guess in the sailing lifestyle you always get surprised: One day you see Stromboli erupting right from the deck of your sailboat and the next day you wake up to have Steve Jobs' luxury yacht anchored next to you. But 99% of the time it is doing jobs in exotic places, covered in oil, salt and fiberglass.
