Vetus Joystick for Bow Thrusters

The Vetus BPJSTA joystick for bow thrusters is an advanced control element designed for precise maneuvering of vessels equipped with bow thrusters. The device allows intuitive control of the thruster's direction and power, significantly facilitating port maneuvers, mooring, and turning the boat in confined spaces. The joystick is usually mounted on the control panel in the cockpit or at the captain's station, and its installation involves connecting it to the dedicated Vetus thruster controller using compatible electrical connectors. The housing is made of durable materials resistant to marine conditions such as UV radiation, moisture, and salinity, ensuring long service life and reliable operation. The ergonomic handle shape allows comfortable operation even with gloves, and the precise movement mechanism enables smooth power modulation of the thruster as needed. The product is dedicated to both motor and sailing yachts where quick response to changing conditions and safety during maneuvering in tight marinas are required. The Vetus BPJSTA joystick is compatible with a wide range of Vetus thrusters, and its installation does not require specialized tools beyond the vessel's basic electrical equipment.
