These systems provide the operator with the ability to control the direction and attitude of the boat from the helm station.
  • Page 44 Helm Control Systems provided directly on the control and a master trim switch is located on the port handle. The port throttle lever controls both the port and center engine when all three engines are selected by the engine selector switch.
