US Patent 11987340 Hull behavior control system and marine vessel

A hull behavior control system for controlling behavior of a hull of a marine vessel includes a memory and at least one controller coupled to the memory. The at least one controller is configured or programmed to control a steering that changes the traveling direction of the marine vessel, obtain a water surface shape around the marine vessel, estimate movement of a wave based on the water surface shape, and when it is determined that the hull rides the wave whose movement has been estimated, control the steering so as to reduce an influence of the wave on the hull.
