A method and system for controlling a position of a marine vessel near an object are disclosed. A location sensor determines a location of the marine vessel, and a speed sensor determines a speed of the marine vessel. A control module is in signal communication with the location sensor and the speed sensor. A marine propulsion system is in signal communication with the control module. The control module determines if the marine vessel is within a predetermined range of the object based on the marine vessel's location. In response to determining that the marine vessel is within the predetermined range of the object, the control module controls the propulsion system to produce at least one of a braking linear thrust and a braking moment to counter current movement of the marine vessel.
