Yamaha Twin Helm Station Kit – Helm Master

Yamaha Twin Helm Master EX Second Station

The Yamaha Twin Helm Master EX Second Station Kit adds digital drive-by-wire control at secondary helm locations on flybridges or towers, replacing mechanical rigging with digital electronics for command of twin-engine configurations from any station. It’s designed to work with Mulmarine’s marine propulsion systems lineup, including DEC V6 Offshore and XTO V8 models.

The system runs fully electric steering with a dual binnacle for synchronized throttle and shifting, including station selection, single-lever mode, and precise speed control for smooth transitions between helm locations. Boaters get more predictable vessel command and less operator fatigue during docking, with optional joystick support at both stations.

Technical Specifications of Twin Helm Kit

• Digital drive-by-wire system integrates twin outboards into a unified second helm station.
• Fully electric steering provides smooth, precise handling with no hydraulic lines at the helm.
• Dual binnacle control offers synchronized shift and throttle management for twin-engine setups.
• CL5/CL7 touchscreen compatibility provides real-time engine diagnostics at the second station.
• Station selection mode allows seamless control transfer between main and secondary helms.
• Marine-grade composite construction is built for harsh offshore environments.
• Yamaha’s 3-year limited warranty covers the digital control system.

Multi-Station Digital Command

The kit uses a digital connection between stations, cutting the lag and maintenance of mechanical cables or hydraulic lines, giving smooth throttle response and shifting at both the main helm and the tower.

Integrated Electric Steering Precision

Fully electric steering gives adjustable steering friction and immediate engine response, removing the hydraulic pumps and hoses a secondary station would otherwise need.

Single-Lever Mode Convenience

Single-lever mode lets the captain control both twin outboards with one throttle handle, simplifying synchronization for consistent speed on long transits or while trolling.

Optional Joystick Maneuverability

With the optional Level 4 joystick, the system coordinates shifting and steering of both outboards to move the boat sideways, diagonally, or rotate on its own axis from the second station.

Advanced Speed Control Features

Integrated speed control and pattern shifting help maintain trolling speed or hold position against strong currents without constant manual input.

Professional Installation Protocol

This kit requires professional installation and digital calibration by a certified Yamaha technician to ensure the electric steering and synchronized shifting function correctly across all helm locations. Pro Tip: confirm your digital network is NMEA 2000 certified for full data integration between engines and displays at both stations.
