Boating-Innovation Articles

Yamaha has added an exciting dimension to motorboating: a wireless controller making docking as easy as gaming. With its latest innovation, Helm Master EX, Yamaha has redefined our interaction with boats, transforming the on-water experience by integrating a handheld device likened to a gaming remote control.

Graphics-interface-creating pioneer, Yamaha, has fashioned a remote controller that allows you to drive the boat from anywhere on board. It’s a wireless, compact piece of technology, crafted to optimise manoeuvrability and control in the palm of your hand. Navigating, berthing, or simply holding station in the face of tide and wind has never been easier.

The remote not only allows you to move forwards, backwards or sideways, but it can also undertake intricate tasks like steering on the spot, executing gentle reactions for angling, or maintaining a precise GPS fix. It employs computer-assisted steering and throttles, making complex moves easy.
