A system including a convex-shaped member, an actuator and a computer. The convex-shaped member includes a forward facing surface, a first end and a second end. While in a deployed state, the forward facing surface curves outward between the first end and the second end in a direction away from a point rearward of the forward facing surface, and the convex-shaped member (i) adjusts attitude or motion of a marine vessel, (ii) deflects oncoming water, and (iii) extends at least partially below a bottom surface of the marine vessel. The actuator (i) is coupled to the convex-shaped member, and (ii) while connected to the marine vessel, is configured to move the convex-shaped member. The computer is configured to control the actuator to transition the member between the deployed state and a retracted state.
