Control system (102) for controlling operations of a marine vessel (100) having a first engine (104) and a second engine (106) is provided. Parity switches are operable to start/stop first and second engine. Each parity switch is actuated for first time to activate remote start/stop control of respective engine. Each switch is actuated for second time to switch respective engine to ON or OFF state. Operator console (120) is communicatively coupled to parity switches to receive first and/or second user inputs. Propulsion control unit (136) is communicably coupled to operator console (120) via network communication channel, first engine control unit (116) of first engine (104) and second engine control unit (118) of second engine (106). Propulsion control unit (136) receives operational parameters for engines from engine control units and receives first and second user inputs from operator console (120). Propulsion control unit (136) transmits engine operating signals for operating respective engines in response to first and/or second user input and based on operational parameters.
