Abstract

An outboard motor is provided that is capable of reliably separating water and air sucked in from an intake port and efficiently draining the separated water. The motor can comprise a cowling, a right-side intake port, a left-side intake port, first and second water separating portions, a communication port, and an engine compartment. The right-side intake port can be formed in a right side surface portion of an upper portion of the cowling. The left-side intake port can be formed in a left side surface portion of the upper portion of the cowling. The first water separating portion can have an intake passage communicating between the right-side intake port and the left-side intake port. The second water separating portion can communicate with the first water separating portion through the communication port, and the second water separating portion can communicate with the engine compartment.
