FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Transfer (Boats equipped with dual helms)
The TRANSFER button allows the boat operator to transfer control of the boat
from the active helm to the inactive helm on boats equipped with dual helms.
Refer to Helm Transfer.
HELM TRANSFER
Some boats are designed to allow control of the vessel from more than one
location. These locations are commonly referred to as helms or stations. Helm
transfer is a term used to describe the method of transferring control from one
helm (or station) to another helm.
Avoid serious injury or death from loss of boat control. The boat operator
should never leave the active station while engine is in gear. Helm transfer
should only be attempted while both stations are manned. One‑person helm
transfer should only be performed while engine is in neutral.
The helm transfer function allows the boat operator to select which helm is in
control of the vessel. Before a transfer can be initiated the ERC levers at the
active helm and at the helm intended for the transfer must be in the neutral
position.
NOTE: If you attempt to transfer helm control when the ERC levers are not in
neutral, a beep will sound and the helm transfer will not succeed until the levers
at the helms are moved to neutral and transfer is requested again.
Some fault codes may appear on VesselView if other control or navigation
functions are attempted after the helm transfer procedure is started. To remove
the fault codes it may be necessary to cycle the key switch off and on, and then
restart the helm transfer procedure. Ensure that other control and navigation
inputs are performed after helm transfer is complete to avoid setting fault
codes.
