The RuPI(Rudder Position Indicator) is developed to aid safe anchoring and docking even in a narrow space manoeuvring as it allows the driver to recognize the angles and direction motion of the bow of the motor boat. It can be easily attached on the centre of the steering wheel.

Most novice boat drivers have difficulty while anchoring or docking the boat and may drive backwards and forwards several times due to their inability to accurately determine the direction of the rudder.  

This may cause unnecessary stress on the boat and result in an increase in fuel costs.

The RuPI provides boat drivers the instrument they need to properly dock and undock the boat.

Most boat operators rely on feel and experience to navigate the boat's rudder and do not have the information to determine the exact angles.

While operating the boat at low speed in close quarters the rudders position is very important.

Using the RuPI is convenient due its position on the steering wheel which allows the boat operator to easily view the position of the rudder while operating.  Utilizing the RuPI minimizes operator steering error.

While undocking or unachnoring, the driver can know the exact position of the rudder by utilizing the RuPI prior to launch.

Now you can forecast driving directions by utilizing the RuPI (Rudder Position Indicator)

Boat drivers operating at low speed may check the rudder's angle direction at any time to assist in steering.

The RuPI helps the boat operator's sense of direction.

When they easily know the position of the rudder, the driver can have a better confidence for the boat driving.

It gives a faster boating resulting in an increase of safety by utilizing the RuPI (Rudder Position Indicator)

No more needless rudder handling !
