Abstract
A marine vessel propulsion control system includes a controller to control a movement of a marine vessel and propulsion devices each including a power source and a thrust generator to generate a thrust based on a drive force of the power source. The controller controls the movement of the marine vessel to navigate according to a preset sea route including a target position. The controller reduces the drive force of the power source of each of the propulsion devices when the marine vessel reaches a deceleration start position that is spaced apart from the target position by a required deceleration distance, and, after reducing the drive force of the power source of each of the propulsion devices, cuts off transmission of the drive force from the power source to the thrust generator in at least one of the propulsion devices depending on a predetermined condition.
