Abstract
To more reliably achieve the turn intended by the operator without making major system changes. The ship control device is provided with an input unit for inputting a maneuvering command value related to the operation control of the ship and a control unit for generating and outputting a steering angle command signal and a throttle command signal to the ship based on the maneuvering command value. If the maneuvering command value is in the intermittent control range, the control unit outputs a throttle command signal with an intermittent control waveform having a Hi level and a Low level.
