Marine Joystick Controls

Industrial Controls & Robotics
Tom Serrao established Control Engineering in 1992, in Bucksport, Maine, and rapidly gained a reputation for the ability to design, build, reverse engineer, and repair electronic circuits. In 1996 Control Engineering was commissioned by The Hinckley Company to design and manufacture the "Jetstick™" for their famous “Picnic Boat™”. Since then, they have designed systems for numerous companies and individual owners, installing marine controls on boats from 16 feet to ship class (200 ft). Tom has been a consultant to boat builders, boat owners, and jet manufacturers for over 20 years, offering advice and identifying system issues. His expertise in the boating industry and his comprehensive knowledge of the mechanics of jet and water propulsion boats provides quick-response troubleshooting and minimizes downtime with analog or digital failures. 
Control Engineering is now located in Palm Coast, Florida, between Jacksonville and Daytona Beach. In most cases, they can be on site within 24 hours if you have concerns about your boat's performance or are seeking advice on a boat purchase, retrofit or system selection for your existing craft. 
Control Engineering has designed robotics for industrial applications and interactive children’s museums and built electronic circuits for projects ranging from telecommunications to the medical industry. Speak to them about your idea and let them create a customized system to fit your needs. 
All control systems are built to military specifications and manufactured on site in Palm Coast, Florida, USA. Control Engineering is capable of designing any type of robotics you can imagine. The entire process from design, prototypes and finished boards are all achieved within their walls. Every circuit board they build is of the highest quality and will stand the test of time!
