A joystick for control?? Damn, that's just scary man!

Must be very usefull for large boats.

The joystick system is not new just for outboards I guess...

Yamaha must be the pioneer using this on outboards... (not sure)

teleflex sells a setup like that as well.
my guess is its for spastic folks with an extra $20K floating about.
its a complex setup that eats up way to much room in the wet space under the deck.
my service manager went to a seminar about it where they got a test run.

Anyone have an idea why Yamaha dont bet on a 4 stroke 175 HP like other products on the market?

This 200 HP 4 cylinder seems to be a great idea but they still lacking the 175. Even if this new motor can make a choise easyer between the 150 a 200 HP

A 130 or 135 would be also a great bet I guess.
