Evinrude has introduced the iDock joystick piloting system, designed for tenders with twin 150- to 300-horsepower Evinrude E-TEC engines.

The iDock joystick system uses aircraft gyroscope sensor technology to compensate automatically for wind and current. iDock connects with the existing internal hydraulic steering feature of select Evinrude E-TEC G2 engines and typically requires less than one hour to set up the joystick, module and hydraulic-hose components.
