STEERING ELECTRONIC STEERING / OPTIMUS EPS / OUTBOARD

OPTIMUS EPS FOR MERCURY ® VERADO ™ ENGINES

Challenges Hatch Innovation

The incredible feel you get when you are behind the wheel of a boat equipped with Optimus EPS can now steer Mercury® Verado™ engines. Dometic has creatively designed a custom molded smartstick and magnet assembly that adapts to the existing built-in Verado™ steering cylinder. The electronic helm, hydraulic steering pump, CANtrak display, and PCM are the same components you have grown to trust to steer your vessel over the past several years. Now you can get the comfort, steering performance and control you expect. The biggest challenge was finding a creative way to adapt the smartstick and magnet components to provide the rudder reference signal without impacting the integrity of the Verado™ steering cylinder. This ingenuity in design adapts these components to the steering cylinder with the same level of redundancy available in all Optimus EPS systems.
