Abstract
The control device causes the first propulsion unit to generate a propulsion in the forward direction and the second propulsion unit to generate a propulsion in the backward direction, thereby turning the ship. The control device performs at least one of the first control, and the second control. The first control is configured by causing the second propulsion unit to switch the direction of the propulsion force to be generated from the backward direction to the forward direction, and causing the first propulsion unit to stop the generation of the propulsion force. The second control is configured by causing the first propulsion unit to switch the direction of the propulsion force to be generated from the forward direction to the backward direction, and causing the second propulsion unit to stop the generation of the propulsion force.
