Abstract
A marine propulsion system for propelling a boat includes a first marine propulsion device provided on the boat, a second marine propulsion device that is an electric outboard device and is provided on the boat, a tilt detector configured to detect a tilt state of the second marine propulsion device, and a notifier. The notifier notifies that the tilt state of the second marine propulsion device is in a tilt-down state when the tilt detector detects that the tilt state of the second marine propulsion device is in the tilt-down state when a power switch of the first marine propulsion device is turned on.

A marine propulsion system for propelling a boat, comprising:
- a first marine propulsion device provided on the boat;
- a second marine propulsion device that is an electric outboard device and is provided on the boat;
- a tilt detector configured to detect a tilt state of the second marine propulsion device;
- and
- a notifier configured to notify that the tilt state of the second marine propulsion device is in a tilt-down state when the tilt detector detects that the tilt state of the second marine propulsion device is in the tilt-down state when a power switch of the first marine propulsion device is turned on.
A marine propulsion system for propelling a boat, comprising:
- a first marine propulsion device provided on the boat;
- a second marine propulsion device that is an electric outboard device and is provided on the boat;
- a tilt actuator configured to tilt up the second marine propulsion device;
- and
- a tilt controller configured to control the tilt actuator, wherein
- the tilt controller controls the tilt actuator to set a tilt state of the second marine propulsion device to a tilt-up state when a power switch of the first marine propulsion device is turned on.
