Conventional ship autopilots are designed based on a linear ship model using pole - placement technique or linear optimal theory.However, in operation, the ship kinematical parameters can go out the linear limits.In this paper, a nonlinear optimal control law based on aggregated variables deus gorras is presented.The criterion is chosen so that the dynamic characteristics of object are included.

The stability of the closed-loop system is global according to the Lyapunov stability theory.The control law depends explicitly on ship model parameters, so that it is can be easily sten jacket m to tune when the parameters change.
