Abstract

A zone in which a vessel is movable is expanded in a transverse moving mode using a joystick. When a tilt direction of a joystick is within a second range closer to a back-and-forth direction than a first range, a controller sets a steering angle of a right propulsion device and a left propulsion device such that the right and left propulsion devices are oriented bilaterally opposite to each other such that each is slanted at a predetermined angle with respect to the back-and-forth direction. The controller sets both the right and left propulsion devices to either a forward moving state or a rearward moving state. The controller controls a propulsive force of the right propulsion device and the left propulsion device such that a net force of the propulsive forces of the right and left propulsion devices is oriented in a direction corresponding to the tilt direction of the joystick.
