A control system and method for deterring theft of a marine vessel. A security control circuit receives a transponder identification code from a transponder. The engine control circuit has a status that is based on a comparison of a stored identification code with the transponder identification code. The status of the engine control circuit is locked if the stored identification code does not match the transponder identification code and the status of the engine control circuit is unlocked if the stored identification code does match the transponder identification code. The security control circuit determines an arbitrated lock status of the control system based on a conjunctive analysis of the locked and unlocked statuses of a plurality of engine control circuits connected to a network bus, and indicates the arbitrated lock status to an operator of the marine vessel.
