A method for controlling a marine vessel having first and second steering nozzles and first and second trim deflectors comprises generating at least a first set of actuator control signals and a second set of actuator control signals. The first set of actuator control signals is coupled to and controls the first and second steering nozzles, and the second set of actuator control signals is coupled to and controls the first and second trim deflectors. The acts of generating and coupling the first set of actuator control signals and the second set of actuator control signals result in inducing any of a net yawing force, a net rolling force, and a net trimming force to the marine vessel without inducing any other substantial forces to the marine vessel by controlling the first and second steering nozzles and the first and second trim deflectors. Also disclosed is a system for controlling a marine vessel.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for controlling a marine vessel having first and second steering nozzles, comprising: generating at least a first actuator control signal and a second actuator control signal; coupling the first actuator control signal to and controlling the first steering nozzle located at a port side of the vessel and coupling the second actuator control signal to and controlling the second steering nozzle located at a starboard side of the vessel; and inducing a net downward force to a stem of the marine vessel by positioning the first steering nozzle in a to port direction relative to the second steering nozzle position and positioning the second steering nozzle in a to starboard direction relative to the first steering nozzle position.
