A marine vessel maneuvering system includes a controller configured or programmed to perform a water entry determination control to determine whether or not water behind a hull that rises above a water surface due to deceleration of the hull may enter the hull when the hull is decelerating.

Marine vessel maneuvering system and marine vessel

In a boat including a hull, when the hull is moved laterally based on an output from the outboard motor, the hull rolls, which may cause discomfort to a user or passengers. To compensate for this, a lateral movement control method for the boat including the hull and the outboard motor includes generating a propulsion force to laterally move the hull with the output of the outboard motor, and executing a roll reduction process to reduce a roll angle of the hull at a time of laterally moving the hull.

An apparatus for judging presence or absence of an abnormality of a marine vessel includes a controller configured or programmed to function as an estimating unit to estimate a marine vessel speed and a pitch angle of a hull of the marine vessel based on a propulsion force of a marine vessel propulsion device and an attitude of the marine vessel propulsion device and a judging unit, and a measuring unit to measure an actual marine vessel speed and an actual pitch angle. The judging unit judges the presence or absence of the abnormality based on at least one of a comparison result between the estimated marine vessel speed estimated by the estimating unit and the actual marine vessel speed measured by the measuring unit or a comparison result between the estimated pitch angle estimated by the estimating unit and the actual pitch angle measured by the measuring unit.
