Yacht Controller at Boot Düsseldorf 2026: remote control and precision manoeuvring

Boot Düsseldorf 2026 has just concluded, once again confirming its role as the leading international event for nautical innovation. Among shipyards, onboard technologies and control systems, Yacht Controller stood out as a benchmark in remote control solutions for yachts, offering technology that has had a tangible impact on manoeuvring operations.

This is not a conceptual or theoretical evolution, but direct, hands-on control of the vessel. The system allows precise management of the yacht’s movements, simplifying manoeuvres, increasing accuracy and enhancing safety, even in confined spaces or challenging conditions.

Remote control and manoeuvre management

Yacht Controller systems allow the captain to control the vessel remotely, moving freely on board during docking and manoeuvring operations. This approach provides immediate operational advantages:

  • improved visibility during manoeuvres
  • reduced stress for the operator
  • increased safety for both crew and vessel
  • reliable control even in wind and current

The result is a more controlled and efficient handling of the yacht, where technology supports — rather than replaces — the captain’s experience.

DPS – Dynamic Positioning System

Among the solutions presented at Boot Düsseldorf 2026, particular attention was drawn to Yacht Controller’s DPS – Dynamic Positioning System.

The system allows the vessel to:

  • automatically maintain its position
  • compensate for wind, current and drift
  • support operations during stops, manoeuvres and sensitive activities

By reducing the margin for human error, the DPS contributes to safer, more stable and predictable manoeuvring and navigation.
