Abstract
A marine propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a lateral marine drive positioned at a bow region of the marine vessel, wherein the lateral marine drive is configured to generate lateral thrust on the marine vessel and a user input device operable by a user to provide a propulsion demand input to control the lateral marine drive. A control system is configured to determine a maximum allowable lateral output based on a speed characteristic and to control the lateral marine drive based on the propulsion demand input such that the lateral marine drive does not exceed the maximum allowable lateral output.
