A watercraft control system is configured to maintain a prescribed distance between a host watercraft and a stationary or anchored object. The watercraft control system can be integrated with a main watercraft control system of the host watercraft, or can be an add-on watercraft control system that supplements the main watercraft control system of the host watercraft. The watercraft control system basically includes a detector and a digital controller. The detector is configured to detect a stationary or anchored object spaced from a host watercraft. The digital controller is configured to communicate with the detector to receive a detection signal from the detector. The digital controller is configured to output at least one control command to a propulsion unit of the host watercraft to maintain a prescribed distance between the host watercraft and the stationary or anchored object.
