Station Handling for Type Approved
Installation
There are three different types of helm station a boat
can be steered from.
Local station
The local helm station has superiority over both the
main helm station and remote helm station. The local
helm station is always able to take over control from
another active helm station without unlocking the
active helm station first.
If there is an additional local helm station that is active
it must first be unlocked in order to transfer control to
another local helm station.
Main Station
The main helm station has superiority over the remote
helm station but is subordinate to the local helm
station.
In order for the main helm station to take control from
an active local helm station or another main helm
station the active helm station must be unlocked first.
The main helm station can take control from a remote
helm station without unlocking the remote helm
station.
Remote station
The remote helm station is subordinate to the local
helm station and the main helm station.
The active helm station must first be unlocked in order
to activate the remote helm station.
