Dockmate® TWIST
The TWIST is fully customizable to provide optimal control of engines and thrusters. We will calibrate the exact power required using our Dockmate Control 2 software to meet the specific needs of the boat and captain.
Its proportional joystick enables precise speed management of engines and thrusters, delivering smooth response even for shaft-drive or outboard boats.
With the TWIST, enjoy total control:
- 1 or more engines,
- 1 or 2 thrusters (bow or stern),
- 1 or 2 windlasses,
- integrated horn
Make your maneuvers easier with unmatched precision!

DockLink™: secure and reliable communication
The DockLink™ protocol from Dockmate® ensures state-of-the-art communication by using FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology with GFSK (FM) modulation. This unique technology allows each Dockmate® to use a set of 6 channels out of the 64 or 72 available, changing frequency 6 times per second. This virtually minimizes any risk of interference and ensures a stable and secure connection. With a range of up to 50 meters, DockLink™ offers unmatched reliability for worry-free boating.
A closer look
Dockmate Positioning System
Dockmate® DPS is a virtual anchor system that automatically maintains your boat's position, compensating for wind and current using the engines and thrusters.
Benefit from unparalleled stability at sea or in marinas thanks to a revolutionary system that combines the finesse of Dockmate wireless remote control systems with the extreme precision of dynamic positioning.
SoftDocking
All boaters know that docking is made more complex by the delay between the moment the control lever(s) are operated and the moment the boat begins to move.
Thanks to our new patented SoftDocking technology, a simple press of the joystick or button systematically triggers a pre-programmed and customizable propeller acceleration for a fraction of a second.
With SoftDocking, you can easily and consistently “nudge” the engine(s), allowing you to dock smoothly.
Throttle+
Offers a predetermined acceleration:
This means that for Dockmate remote controls that do not have proportional engine control (such as the Single or Twin), they can have 2 levels of engine control: forward/reverse at idle and calibrated forward/reverse acceleration.
With Throttle+, additional acceleration can be used at any time, immediately, with the simple press of a button.
Engine Trick – Stern Thruster Simulator
Move your boat sideways toward the dock, even without a stern thruster.
Thanks to the Engine Trick function integrated into the advanced DockControl 2 software, Dockmate intelligently coordinates the engines and the bow thruster to generate precise lateral movement.
This technology optimizes your maneuvers and offers you simpler, more comfortable, and safer navigation.
Dockmate® complementary products
The remote control is only one piece of the puzzle.
Each Dockmate system also includes a receiver and a charger.
Dockmate® Receiver
The receiver is the interface between your Dockmate® remote and your boat. It interprets the commands sent and transmits them directly to the maneuvering systems. In short, it ensures reliable communication between the remote and the onboard controls.
Dockmate® Cradle
Fixed joystick or wireless remote? With the wireless induction charger for your Dockmate remote, you can have both. If dashboard space is limited, the Edge model is available on a stand.
