Use
Familiarise yourself with the operation of the panel.
Do this in a safe location!
In principle, use the bow and stern thruster control panel only at low
speed or when manoeuvring the boat.
Move the joystick in the direction in which the boat is required to
move.
The thrust starts at about 25% and increases proportionally to the
maximum value as the joystick is moved further to its outermost po-
sition.
Gently move the joystick in the desired sailing direction. If necessary,
correct the direction, from the mid position, by moving the joystick
slightly up or down.
Use the rotary knob to turn the boat around its axis.
