The new Pro-Docker from VETUS brings computer control to the helmsman's fingertips and makes maneuvering your boat not only simple, but enjoyable too. The Pro-Docker simultaneously controls the propulsion engine(s), transmissions, the bow thruster and the stern thruster if fitted. Intuitive operation of just a single joy stick is all that is needed to perform the most accurate boat movements. This makes even the tightest berthing maneuver not only a pleasure but a source of pride. The VETUS Pro-Docker is the perfect assistant, allowing you to handle your boat like a true professional. The VETUS Pro-Docker system may be used in combination with all types of bow and/or stern thrusters, whether electrically or hydraulically driven. The Pro-Docker operates the bow and stern thrusters, together with the propulsion engines' throttles and gearshifts, with the aid of just one joystick. As an option, it can also be interfaced with the VETUS follow-up steering system, so that the rudders can be operated too. Intuitive operation of the joystick allows proportional control of the bow and stern thrusters; from very slow up to full thrust, by gradually moving the joystick to port or starboard. By rotating the joystick, clockwise or counter-clockwise, the boat will rotate in the appropriate direction. The engines are controlled by moving the joystick forwards or backwards. Any combination of the joystick movement is possible to give you full and precise control.
