Twin Disc EJS joystick installed beside a standard QuickShift engine control |
Twin Disc will offer on-water demonstrations of its unique Express Joystick System (EJS) during the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show this year.
The Managing Director of Twin Disc (Pacific), Glenn Frettingham, said the new system would be available for active demonstrations throughout the four-day show on a Maritimo C60 Sports Cabriolet. EJS revolutionizes docking and slow speed manoeuvring of diesel powered, conventional shaft-drive boats. Utilising Twin Discs patented Quickshift transmission and EC300 control technology, the joystick offers fingertip control of the boat's direction and speed instantaneously and intuitively.
The EJS smoothly and simultaneously actuates and controls engines, transmission and thrusters. The joystick allows a skipper effortless control in any direction, even to pivot the boat on its own axis. According to Twin Disc, performance dramatically exceeded any other propulsion system.
