Evinrude‘s new iDock system adds joystick steering to select models of Evinrude E-Tec G2 outboards for easier docking. It’s available with new G2s ranging from 150 to 300 hp in twin-engine configurations, and it easily integrates with the outboards’ built-in steering. iDock’s low-speed control allows captains to move their boats in virtually any direction as well as spin the vessel in place.

Gyroscopic stabilization compensates for wind and current. A boost mode intuitively adds thrust with additional pressure on the joystick. A detent on the joystick indicates the activated boost mode. The iDock system costs $5,999.99 as an optional upgrade.
