This packages Simrad Komodo glass helm station gives the owners a 100% digital skipper experience, complete with Simrad armrest controller, HALO radar, 1kw transducer, Fusion entertainment integration and much more.

Fishing & diving features aboard include a 70L livebait tank and walkaround bait station, underfloor lockable rod storage for security and in-situ washing, overboard handwash systems, a high pressure deckwash system, built-in tackle drawers, underwater lights and SeaDek flooring throughout.

The real hero on Key West is Mercury’s JPO Joystick Piloting functionality which enables the skipper to hold positions for fishing with SkyHook, DriftHook and BowHook plus allows easy maneuvering in and out of boat ramps, jetties, and in this owner’s case, their marina.
