Abstract
An engine control system and a method control the engine speed of a watercraft that is propelled by a stream of water generated by propulsion unit driven by an engine. The system and method detect whether the propulsion unit is generating the stream of water. The system and method limit the maximum engine speed to a first speed when the propulsion unit is generating the stream of water and limit the maximum engine speed to a second speed, lower than the first speed, when the propulsion unit is not generating the stream of water.
