Yamaha Outboard Rigging
Complete Yamaha Outboard Rigging — We Handle Everything
Buying the motor is step one. Getting it properly rigged and ready to run is step two — and it's where a lot of buyers get left on their own. Not here.
As an authorized Yamaha marine dealer, we have access to the complete Yamaha rigging component catalog across every model we sell. Whether you need a basic tiller setup or a full Helm Master EX joystick and autopilot system, we can source and spec the right components for your installation and include everything in a single quote.
Tell us what you need when you request your motor quote and we'll build the full package.
What We Can Rig
Basic Remote Control Packages
For single-engine setups moving from tiller to remote control, or replacing existing controls — we supply Yamaha's 703 and 704 remote control boxes, matching cables, throttle and shift linkage, and mechanical steering components. Clean, reliable, and the right starting point for most aluminum fishing boat setups.
Hydraulic and Power Steering
Hydraulic steering removes the feedback and effort from mechanical setups and makes a significant difference on any boat over 16 feet running in chop. Power steering is available on compatible mid-range and larger motors. We spec and supply the right system for your motor and hull — nothing mismatched, nothing undersized.
Command Link and Command Link Plus Gauges
Yamaha's Command Link digital gauge network gives you real-time engine data — RPM, fuel flow, trim, water temperature, and more — displayed cleanly at the helm. Command Link Plus expands on this with additional data capabilities and multi-engine display options. We supply complete gauge kits configured for your motor and helm layout.
Trim Tabs
Trim tabs improve handling, reduce bow rise, correct listing, and cut fuel consumption at cruise. We supply and spec trim tab systems compatible with your hull and motor combination — a worthwhile addition on most boats over 17 feet.
Helm Master EX — Joystick Docking, Autopilot, and Auto Trim
Yamaha's Helm Master EX is the most advanced helm control system available for outboard-powered boats. It brings joystick docking, autopilot, auto trim, and fish point holding together in a single integrated system — controlled from a clean helm display.
If you've ever docked a larger boat solo in a crosswind, or wanted to hold position on a fishing spot without anchoring, Helm Master EX changes how you use the boat. It is available on compatible Yamaha motors from the F150 and up. Ask us about eligibility for your motor and hull.
Twin Engine Rigging
Twin engine setups require matched controls, synchronized throttle and shift, and in many cases dual-station rigging. We supply and spec complete twin-engine rigging packages for any compatible Yamaha configuration — including counter-rotation motor pairs where required.
How It Works
Rigging components are quoted alongside your motor — not as a separate transaction. When you request a quote, tell us:
- Your boat make, model, and length
- Your helm layout and existing controls (if replacing)
- Single or twin engine
- What level of rigging you're looking for — basic controls through to full Helm Master
We'll come back with a complete package — motor, rigging components, and freight — in a single same-day response. You deal with one supplier, one quote, one shipment.
Installation
We supply the components. Installation should be performed by a qualified marine technician, which is also required to maintain your Yamaha factory warranty. If you need help locating a qualified installer in your area, contact us and we'll point you in the right direction.
