The present disclosure relates to a propulsion control system (30) for controlling a marine vessel (10) comprising at least four propulsion units (20, 22, 24, 26). The marine vessel (10) comprises a longitudinal centre line (L) and a transversal line (T). The transversal line (T) extends in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal centre line (L) and also extends through the steering axis of the aftmost of the propulsion units. The marine vessel (10) comprises four quadrants (I, II, III, IV) defined by the longitudinal centre line (L) and the transversal line (T) wherein a first (I) and a second (II) quadrant are located on the same side of said longitudinal centre line (L). When a combined sway and yaw motion is desired, the thrust of one propulsion unit is directed towards the second (I) quadrant, and the thrust of the other propulsion units is directed towards the first (II) quadrant. |
