Abstract
[Problem] To perform an assembling operation easily while attaining improvement in engine efficiency. [Solution] An outboard motoraccording to the invention includes an upstream side ductwhich is fixed to an engine upper cover, and a downstream side ductwhich is fixed to an engineside. The upstream side ductincludes an exhaust portwhich is opened at its side face. The downstream side ductincludes a downstream side lower ductand a downstream side upper duct. In the downstream side lower duct, a suction portis provided at a position opposed to the exhaust portand separately at a predetermined distance from the exhaust port. In the downstream side upper duct, an exhaust port formed toward a throttle bodyof the engineis provided above the downstream side lower duct. The upstream side ductand the downstream side ductare formed so as not to interfere with each other when the engine upper coveris moved vertically.
