In a control device for outboard motors that controls two outboard motors attached to a boat, according to an operation by an operating lever that is tiltable in all directions from a neutral state, when the operating lever is moved to a different zone, a steering control unit controls shift positions of the two outboard motors and a steering specification according to a zone to which the operating lever is moved first, until a determination unit determines that the operating lever is in the neutral state, thereby enabling steering easily reflecting the intention of a boat operator and improving a steering efficiency even when an operation of moving from zone to zone is performed.
