Ship Automation Systems for Yachts

Smart automation for effortless control and exceptional onboard comfort.

Integrated automation designed to enhance the yachting experience. 

Exceptional yacht experiences rely on more than propulsion performance alone. Precise control, smooth operation, and intuitive access to critical systems are equally important for owners, captains and crews. mtu NautIQ yacht automation systems bring propulsion, power management and vessel functions together in a fully integrated solution, providing comprehensive visibility and control throughout the vessel. Engineered alongside mtu propulsion systems and designed around the specific requirements of each yacht, mtu NautIQ supports safe, efficient and comfortable operation from the engine room to the bridge. 

One platform for vessel monitoring and control

Integrated control of propulsion, power and navigation systems supports safe operation, efficient decision-making and greater comfort on board.

Managing a modern yacht requires access to a wide range of systems and information. By bringing propulsion, power management, navigation and vessel monitoring together on a single platform, mtu NautIQ simplifies operation and provides a consistent view of critical vessel functions.

Captains and crews can access essential information from a unified interface, improving situational awareness and supporting confident decision-making during navigation and maneuvering. The result is a streamlined operating environment that reduces complexity while enhancing safety, comfort and overall vessel performance.

As part of a fully integrated mtu solution, the automation system is engineered to work seamlessly with propulsion and onboard power systems from the outset. This coordinated approach helps ensure reliable operation, efficient system management and a high level of onboard comfort across all phases of a voyage.
