Control & Comfort

Smooth, quiet, and responsive, Dometic’s new Gen 4 Hydraulic Helms are redefining what it means to steer a boat. This latest innovation in boat steering systems delivers unmatched precision and comfort, giving captains the confidence to navigate with ease whether they’re docking, cruising, or tackling rough seas.

What Makes Gen 4 the Next Step in Marine Steering Systems

Advanced Valve Technology for Precision Boat Control

The Gen 4 helms feature upgraded valve technology that enhances hydraulic steering performance, reducing chatter and eliminating flow noise when returning the wheel to centre. The improved check valve durability boosts trailering performance and ensures a longer service life.

Smoother Steering Feel & Faster Response

With tighter helm feedback and improved “regrip” performance, the Gen 4 helm makes steering more predictable and controlled. This means sharper boat handling and manoeuvrability, giving you complete confidence whether you’re running at speed or making precise turns in tight spaces.

Sleek, Modern Helm Design

The new front-mount case design not only improves the aesthetics of the hydraulic helm steering systems but also integrates seamlessly into modern marine consoles.

Benefits for Captains, Builders, and Fleet Operators

• Effortless Comfort – Reduced wheel effort makes long days on the water less fatiguing.
• Quiet Operation – A smoother, noise-free experience elevates both functionality and onboard comfort.
• Enhanced Reliability – Stronger internal components for dependable, long-term use in any marine environment.
• Improved Boat Handling – Greater control in all conditions thanks to precise marine control systems engineering.

Who Should Consider the Gen 4 Helm

• Boat manufacturers & OEMs looking to integrate premium marine steering wheel control solutions.
• Charter operators wanting durable and easy-to-maintain hydraulic steering systems.
• Recreational boaters seeking smoother steering performance and enhanced safety.
• Upgrade projects where improved boat manoeuvrability and responsiveness are a priority.

The Dometic Gen 4 hydraulic helm isn’t just an update, it’s a leap forward for marine steering systems. By combining reduced noise, smoother feedback, and superior handling, it raises the bar for comfort, safety, and control on the water.

Whether you’re upgrading an existing vessel or designing the next generation of boats, the Gen 4 helm offers the precision and performance today’s boaters demand.
