An outboard motor includes an engine having an output portion. A lower gear mechanism drives a propeller disposed below the engine. A transmission includes an input shaft that transmits power from the output portion to the transmission. An output shaft transmits power from the transmission to the lower gear mechanism. A reverse idler shaft is parallel to an intermediate shaft. A forward clutch is disposed on one of the input and intermediate shafts and connects and disconnects power from the input shaft to the intermediate shaft. A reverse clutch is disposed on the intermediate shaft and connects and disconnects power transmission from the input shaft to the intermediate shaft. Power of the input shaft is transmitted to the output shaft via the forward clutch and the intermediate shaft and is transmitted to the output shaft via the reverse idler shaft, the reverse clutch, and the intermediate shaft.

A marine propulsion device includes a first gear, a second gear, a third gear, a case, a partition wall, and a first flow path. The case includes an internal space in which the first gear, the second gear, and the third gear are located. The partition wall is located between the second gear and the third gear in the internal space. The partition wall partitions the internal space into a first space and a second space. The second gear is located in the first space. The third gear is located in the second space. The first flow path communicates the first space with the second space. The first flow path is located on a same side as the first gear with respect to a center line of the second gear and the third gear.

A propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a drive unit and a transom bracket for movably attaching the drive unit to the marine vessel such that the drive unit may be moved between a lower position and a higher position. The drive unit is adapted to be connected to the swim platform such that at least a portion of the swim platform is manoeuvrable by the drive unit being moved between its lower and higher positions.

A propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a transom bracket configured to be connected to a transom of the marine vessel, a drive unit being rotatably connected with the transom bracket so as to be pivotable by a tilt arrangement from a lowered position into a raised position, or vice versa, about a pivot joint, and a trim arrangement being arranged between the transom bracket and the drive unit to adjust a trim angle of the drive unit when in the lowered position. A trim arrangement lock is arranged to be connected with the trim arrangement for a range of trim angles of the drive unit in the lowered position so as to prevent pivoting of the drive unit by the tilt arrangement inside the range of trim angles, and the trim arrangement lock is configured to be disconnected from the trim arrangement outside the range of trim angles so as to allow pivoting of the drive unit by the tilt arrangement.

A watersport propulsion system for a marine watersport vessel includes a drive unit arranged rotatable from a rearward-facing position to a forward-facing position, and vice versa, a control unit being operatively connected with the drive unit. The control unit is configurable in a nominal mode of operation and in a watersport mode of operation. The control unit is configured to operate the drive unit in the forward-facing position when in the watersport mode of operation and in the rearward-facing position otherwise.

A propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a transom bracket being configured to be connected with a transom of the marine vessel, and a drive unit. The drive unit is rotatably connected with the transom bracket via a first pivot joint, wherein a harness is guided from the transom bracket via the first pivot joint to the drive unit.

A propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a drive unit, a transom bracket for attaching the drive unit to the marine vessel, a linear actuator for moving the drive unit. The linear actuator includes a drive end that is connected to the drive unit and a transom end. The propulsion system further includes a movable attachment for movably connecting the transom end of the linear actuator to the transom bracket.

A propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a drive unit, a transom bracket for attaching the drive unit to a transom of the marine vessel, and an actuator for moving the drive unit. The transom bracket comprises a wall structure that is arranged to shield the actuator from the water.

A propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a transom bracket being configured to be connected with a transom of the marine vessel, a drive unit being rotatably connected with the transom bracket so as to be pivotable from a lowered position into a raised position, or vice versa, and a trim arrangement being arranged between the transom bracket and the drive unit to adjust a trim angle of the drive unit when in the lowered position, wherein a support face is arranged on the transom of the marine vessel or at the transom bracket, and the drive unit comprises a support member arranged opposite the support face in the lowered position whereby the support face is configured to support the support member.

A propulsion system for a marine vessel includes a transom bracket configured to be connected with a transom of the marine vessel, and a drive unit. The drive unit is arranged to be moved in relation to the transom bracket to move the drive unit in the water and out of the water. The drive unit is connected with the transom bracket via a connecting arm having a first pivot joint connected with the transom bracket and a second pivot joint connected with the drive unit. The drive unit is configured to be moved in the water and out of the water by the connecting arm pivots around the first pivot joint or the drive unit pivots around the second pivot joint or the connecting arm and the drive unit pivot around both pivot joints.
