Outboard joystick docking systems can be immensely helpful when it comes to squeezing a boat into a tight slip at the end of a long day (especially if wind and current are pitted against you), but not many boaters have actually seen the system in action. Senior editor Lenny Rudow took few minutes to film this quick video showing how two Mercury Joystick Control-enabled outboards get the job done in quick fashion. As you watch, keep in mind that the boat operator isn't adjusting throttles or turning a steering wheel--it's all being done through easy joystick inputs at the helm. http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2014/05/mercury-optimus-360-joystick-control-system-video/ For more boating videos, visit http://www.boats.com. boats.com features boat reviews, how-to videos, special features, and information about new boats, boats for sale, and boating products—usually with a dash of fun.
