JC-20
The YANMAR JC20 inboard joystick system is suitable for every motorboat, powerboat, and catamaran equipped with twin YANMAR 6LY Series & 8LV Series common rail engines.
How it works
Simply press the joystick gently in the desired direction of movement and the JC20 will automatically engage the bow thruster and adjust the speed of the two shaft engines to maneuver the bow precisely where needed.
The VC20 is YANMAR’s 2nd generation vessel control system that controls all YANMAR electronically managed engines. Featuring simplified electrical management, a high-quality appearance, and significant functional improvements, the next generation YANMAR VC20 Vessel Control System integrates with YANMAR’s complete line up of common rail engine series, transmissions, controls, and displays.
The VC20 is a J1939 based CAN bus system that has a dedicated network to each engine and comes standard with an emergency back-up panel, ensuring the highest reliability. With NMEA connections built in, the VC20 can connect easily to multiple other vessel accessories or systems.
The system was completely developed by YANMAR to meet the company’s high standards of quality and dependability. The VC20 controls all YANMAR engine and transmission function and shows engine alarms and diagnostic codes in the display.
