Abstract
An aeration control system and method for a marine vessel. The system includes a valve configured to be coupled to an aeration conduit of a marine vessel. The valve is configured to be responsive to a valve control signal having a first value so as to be open and to provide air to the aeration conduit, and the valve configured to be responsive to the valve control signal having a second value so as to be closed and not provide air to the aeration conduit. The aeration control system also includes a control device, electrically coupled to the valve, that provides the valve control signal to the valve

1-37. (canceled)
A trimming control system for a marine vessel comprising an engine and an articulating propeller, the trimming control system comprising:
- an actuator coupled to the articulating propeller;
- and
- a control device operative to provide, based at least in part on at least one signal sensed from the engine, an actuator control signal to the actuator,
- wherein, in response to the actuator control signal having a first value, the actuator is configured to actuate the articulating propeller to a first position, and
- wherein, in response to the actuator control signal having a second value different from the first value, the actuator is configured to actuate the articulating propeller to a second position different from the first position,
- wherein the at least one signal sensed from the engine comprises an engine load signal.
