The invention relates to a multi-axis articulated lever control member, also known under the name joystick, for generating command signals aimed to control the movement of boats, watercraft or the like by one or more operators, said control member comprising a base, a stick, at least one shaft for supporting said stick, a cardan joint or similar member mechanically coupled to said shaft and contained in an appropriate supporting housing comprised in the base, one or more sensors, one or more electronic circuits, one or more control mechanisms preferably as for example one o more buttons, wherein a subset of said control mechanisms possibly being positioned on the stick and/or on the base of the joystick and said subset of said control mechanisms being usable by the operator for managing the swaying of at least one or more outboard motors, i.e. of the end part of one or more inboard/outboard motors around a horizontal axis substantially parallel to the transom, a swaying movement also known under the term trimming. In some embodiments, possibly superimposable, this joystick is provided with an ergonomically shaped control mechanism and/or a rotating member also activatable by the operator.
