Abstract
An outboard motor and particularly an improved protective cowling for an outboard motor that provides a very simple air inlet but one which is effective in preventing the passage of water to the interior of the protective cowling and for separating and draining water from the inducted air. The drained water is returned directly to the atmosphere. The air inlet system for the protective cowling is formed by only two members so as to facilitate a simple and low cost construction.
