Upper anti-vibration mounts have axial lines arranged in parallel to a longitudinal center line extending in a longitudinal direction of the outboard motor body. Lower anti-vibration mounts have axial lines concentrated on one point on the longitudinal center line extending in a longitudinal direction of the outboard motor body. Meanwhile, the axial lines are inclined at the identical angle symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal center line, so that they intersect in a V-shape in front of the support shaft as seen in a plan view of the outboard motor body.

A watercraft propulsion system includes a propulsion unit to be driven by an engine. The engine includes a cylinder block, an air intake channel, an exhaust channel, a supercharging device, and a fuel injector. The watercraft propulsion system includes the engine, the propulsion unit to be driven by the engine, a rotation speed sensor to detect a rotation speed of the engine, an air intake pressure sensor to detect an air intake pressure of the engine, and a controller. The controller is configured or programmed to compute a command fuel injection amount so that the engine performs a combustion operation at an air/fuel ratio in a lean-burn range (lean-combustion range) according to the rotation speed detected by the rotation speed sensor and the air intake pressure detected by the air intake pressure sensor, and to drive the fuel injector based on the computed command fuel injection amount.

An outboard motor includes an engine, a pressure charger, an intercooler, a bypass air passage, and an air bypass valve to open and close the bypass air passage. The engine includes a cylinder block and an air intake passage and an exhaust passage both of which are connected to the cylinder block. The pressure charger is located in the air intake passage. The intercooler is located in the air intake passage between the cylinder block and the pressure charger. A first end of the bypass air passage is connected to a region of the air intake passage upstream of the pressure charger. A second end of the bypass air passage is connected to a region of the air intake passage downstream of the pressure charger. The air bypass valve is directly attached to the intercooler.

A flushing system for boat motors that allows for single-handed manipulation to remotely position flushing ears onto the intake vents of an outboard boat motor. A water passage tube provides a source of fresh water when flushing or performing maintenance on the motor of a boat stored on a lift. The flushing ears are positioned on the intake valves and are adjusted to form a seal by a gripping handle. A locking device prevents movement of the ears while flushing the motor and can be released to remove the ears once the flushing is complete.

A breather device for an outboard motor engine, the outboard motor engine including a breather chamber formed in an engine main body, and an intake passage guiding air into the engine main body, in which an intake port of the intake passage is open inside an engine cover that covers the engine main body, the breather device includes a resonator chamber communicating with an upstream side of the intake passage, and a breather passage extending from the breather chamber and communicating with the resonator chamber.

An arrangement of exchangers for marinization of a marine engine, including an engine block with in-line cylinders or cylinders in a V, cooled by a cooling fluid, at least one turbocompressor with a hot chamber connected to an outlet and a cold chamber connected to the cylinders of the engine block, a reverser including a housing and containing oil, wherein the arrangement includes: a radiator hose for supplying cooling water, a turbocompressor exchanger, an engine exchanger, a reverser exchanger, a radiator hose for discharging cooling water toward an outlet of combustion gases, downstream from the hot chamber of the at least one turbocompressor,
with these three exchangers being placed in this order and inserted in the circulation direction of the water between the radiator hose for supplying the cooling water and the radiator hose for discharging this same cooling water.

An outboard motor includes an outboard motor main body including an engine and a propeller driven by the engine, an upper bracket to attach the outboard motor main body to a hull, and a pair of antivibration mounts. The pair of antivibration mounts are joined to the upper bracket, and sandwich and elastically support a portion of the outboard motor main body from the left and the right of the outboard motor main body. The pair of antivibration mounts are arranged side by side in the left-right direction so that a center of rolling of the outboard motor main body is located between the pair of antivibration mounts in the left-right direction, and are bilaterally asymmetrical to each other.
