Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To improve impact resistance of an outboard engine.SOLUTION: An electric outboard engine 70 includes an outboard engine body 60 and an attachment unit 50. The attachment unit 50 attaches the outboard engine body 60 to a rear unit of a hull 10. The outboard engine body 60 includes: a propeller 66; an electric motor 62 for driving the propeller 66, and a control unit 61 for controlling the motor 62. The control unit 61 is positioned in between the motor 62 and the attachment unit 50. According to the configuration above, even when another hull collides with the hull 10, the control unit 61 is easily protected from impact of the collision since the control unit 61 is in between the motor 62 and the attachment body 50. Therefore, impact resistance of the electric outboard engine 70 is improved.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
