Abstract

A ship body control device is provided, which includes a sensor, a propelling force controller, and an autopilot controller. The sensor measures a speed of a ship. The propelling force controller controls a propelling force of the ship. The autopilot controller outputs an instruction to reduce the propelling force to the propelling force controller, when a condition of canceling an automatic cruise in which the speed of the ship matches with an automatic ship speed setting is satisfied.
