Two products introduced this year by Mercury Marine – Active Trim and Mercury’s next-generation Joystick Piloting system – have been nominated for DAME Design Awards, the marine industry’s most prestigious international design recognition, for new marine equipment and accessories.

A total of 67 products have been nominated for DAME Awards, and winners will be announced Nov. 15 at the METS Trade Show in Amsterdam.

Nominated products will be on display throughout the METS show, Nov. 15-17, and winners are determined by a team of independently appointed judges.

The nominations follow recognition two weeks ago for two additional Mercury products – VesselView Mobile Bluetooth module and app, and Electronic Steering Helm – which earned Innovations Awards at the International Boatbuilders Exhibition and Conference in Tampa, Florida.

“These awards and nominations are testaments to the customer-centricity, technical capability and attention to detail of Mercury’s industrial design and engineering teams,” said David Foulkes, Mercury vice president of product development, engineering and Racing, and CTO of Brunswick Corporation. “We are determined to remain the industry leader in innovation, intuitive design and standards of craftsmanship.”

Mercury’s new Joystick Piloting System and Active Trim are available now through Mercury dealers.
