Claim 10:
11. A control device of an outboard motor, the outboard motor including a shift actuator that shifts a rotational output of an internal combustion engine based on a position of a shift lever operated by a user, the control device comprising:
an operating position acquisition unit that acquires an operating position of the shift lever;
a state quantity acquisition unit that acquires at least one of a current, a voltage, and a temperature of the shift actuator, as a state quantity of the shift actuator; and
a determination processing unit that, when the operating position has been switched, determines whether the state quantity is greater than or equal to a stop-initiating threshold value or not, and, if the state quantity is greater than or equal to the stop-initiating threshold value, performs control to suppress at least one of ignition and fuel injection in the internal combustion engine.
