Dockmate: More Than a Gadget - A Commitment to Control, Quality, and Confidence

For years, Dockmate was seen as a “wireless convenience” — a smart add-on that made docking easier. But today, Dockmate has evolved far beyond that perception. We are no longer just an accessory; we are a quality wireless control company that stands shoulder to shoulder with the world’s most respected OEM control manufacturers.

Our mission has always been to give captains total command of their vessel — but the way we achieve that has changed dramatically. Through constant innovation, rigorous testing, and unmatched integration with leading propulsion and thruster systems, Dockmate has reached a level of precision that mirrors the OEM helm itself. Every command you make through Dockmate is measured, verified, and replicated with the same accuracy and safety that boat builders demand at the factory.

Engineering That Matches OEM Standards

Dockmate’s wireless systems are engineered to operate as a natural extension of the helm — not an aftermarket workaround. Our proprietary communication protocol is built to ABYC P-28 standards, ensuring complete redundancy, fault detection, and failsafe operation. Each system undergoes extensive quality control in Fort Lauderdale and at our European engineering center to guarantee consistent reliability in every environment.

When we integrate with OEM controls from brands like Volvo Penta, Yanmar, or ZF, we don’t just mimic their behavior — we meet their expectations for performance and safety. It’s the same standard of engineering excellence that boat builders trust when they install the original controls at the helm.

A New Definition of Trust

Boaters aren’t just buying convenience anymore. They’re investing in confidence — knowing their Dockmate will perform with OEM-level precision every time they leave the dock. Whether you’re holding position with Dockmate DPS or easing into a slip with SoftDocking, you’re relying on technology that has been tested, validated, and refined with the same discipline as the world’s top marine control systems.

This is the new Dockmate. Not a gadget. Not an accessory.

A quality wireless control company built on the principles of reliability, safety, and seamless integration — because your control system should never feel optional.
