Abstract
An outboard motor includes an outboard motor main body, an attachment mechanism, a pivoting mechanism, an angle detecting device, a rotation speed detecting device, and a controller. The pivoting mechanism includes a first cylinder arranged to support and pivot the outboard motor main body about a horizontal shaft from a first angle to a second angle greater than the first angle. An angle detection value and a speed detection value are input into the controller. The controller is arranged to execute a speed reduction control to control the engine so as to reduce the engine speed. The controller is arranged not to execute the speed reduction control when the angle detection value is a value corresponding to the inclination angle less than the first angle or a value corresponding to the inclination angle greater than the second angle.
