ABSTRACT:
A control apparatus for an outboard marine engine is able to improve cruising performance of a boat particularly during acceleration or travelling on a curved course. An attitude angle sensor senses a three-dimensional attitude of the outboard engine including a trim angle, a bank angle and a yaw or steering angle thereof, and generates corresponding attitude angle signals. A controller controls engine control parameters based on various signals indicative of engine operating conditions inclusive of the attitude angle signals in such a manner that the output power of the engine increases in accordance with an increasing trim angle, whereas it decreases in accordance with an increasing bank and/or yaw (steering) angle.
