ABSTRACT:
A marine vessel running controlling apparatus is applicable to a marine vessel which includes a propulsive force generating unit having an engine with an electric throttle as a drive source for generating a propulsive force to propel a hull of the marine vessel. The marine vessel running controlling apparatus includes an operational unit to be operated by an operator of the marine vessel for controlling the propulsive force, and a control unit arranged to acquire a normal data sample by eliminating an abnormal data sample from actual data acquired during travel of the marine vessel and update control information related to an opening degree of the electric throttle with respect to an operation amount of the operational unit based on the normal data sample.
