A lever control member, also known as joystick, for generating command signals that control the movement of boats, watercrafts or the like includes a base, a stick, a shaft for supporting the stick, a joint mechanically coupled to the shaft and positioned in a supporting housing included in the base, one or more sensors, one or more electronic circuits, and one or more control mechanisms, for example, one or more buttons. A subset of those control mechanisms possibly may be positioned on the stick and may be used to manage the swaying of one or more outboard motors around a horizontal axis parallel to the transom, known as “trim.” The joystick may be provided with an ergonomically shaped control mechanism and/or a rotating member, which may be activated by an operator.
