In a vessel steering system including three or more propulsion devices, unintentional turning of a vessel is prevented when the vessel moves in an oblique direction. When a tilt direction of a joystick is an oblique direction between a longitudinal direction and a lateral direction, a controller is configured or programmed to correct at least one steering angle of a left propulsion device, a right propulsion device, and a central propulsion device so that a resultant force of propulsive forces of the left propulsion device, the right propulsion device, and the central propulsion device acts in a direction passing through a center of gravity of the vessel.
