Zusammenfassung:A method of controlling a marine propulsion system includes receiving a roll position measurement signal from a roll sensor measuring roll position of a marine vessel and receiving a steering input. The method includes determining based on the roll position measurement signal and the steering input that the roll position of the marine vessel exceeds a port threshold in a port roll direction where no corresponding steering input is present, and determining based on the roll position measurement signal and the steering input that the roll position of the marine vessel exceeds a starboard threshold in a starboard roll direction where no corresponding steering input is present. A steering compensation is then determined based on the roll position measurement signal, and an actuator is controlled to effectuate the steering compensation to reduce a magnitude of the roll position of the marine vessel.
