Abstract
A control system for a marine vessel that has a propulsion device including an engine. The control system has an opening angle adjustment device configured to adjust a throttle opening angle of the engine, and a controller including a computing device and a non-transitory storage medium containing program instructions. The execution of the program instructions by the computing device causes the controller to judge whether or not a hull of the marine vessel has entered a planing state, set a predetermined mode in which the planing state is maintained, and upon determining that the predetermined mode is set and that the hull has entered the planing state, control the opening angle adjustment device to keep the hull in the planing state even when the hull has decelerated.
