The Cruisers Yachts 420 Sports Coupe comes with joystick control with either diesel or gas IPS engines.	The Larson 330 Day Cruiser comes with joystick control with either Axius/MerCrusier or EVC/Volvo Penta gas engines.

If truth be told, one of the biggest reasons women (read: wives) are not as enthusiastic about boat ownership as are men, is the fact that they often get relegated to schlepping fenders, throwing lines, and fending off when Dad docks the boat. As hard as it is to believe, we have even seen some men yell at their wives when docking. The advent of joystick control two years ago has changed all of that. Now Dad can dock the boat like a pro, and if he really wants to perform like a pro he’ll turn the helm over to his better half and schlep the fenders himself. Because joystick control is so easy, his bride can dock the boat and dry her nails at the same time. This spring, both Larson Boats and Cruisers Yachts is inviting boaters to test drive their boats with joysticks so that they can see for themselves how easy joystick boat handling can be.
