<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an outboard motor control apparatus having a transmission and a trim angle adjusting mechanism capable of adjusting a trim angle, and capable of smoothly turning by restraining cavitation caused by steering. <P>SOLUTION: This outboard motor control apparatus includes the transmission and the trim angle adjusting mechanism (a power tilt trim unit) capable of adjusting the trim angle θ. A second speed is selected by the transmission, and when a variation in throttle opening of an engine is a predetermined value or more, operation of the transmission is controlled so as to shift to a first speed from the second speed (the time t1), and when an engine speed NE is a predetermined engine speed NE3 or more, operation of the trim angle adjusting mechanism is controlled so that the trim angle θ becomes a predetermined angle (a learning trim angle δ for the second speed) by starting trim-up (the time t2), and when starting the steering, the operation of the trim angle adjusting mechanism is controlled so that the trim angle θ reduces in response to a steered angle α (the time t5). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
