An Outboard Motor is a self-contained propulsion system commonly used in small watercraft. It consists of an Engine, Gearbox, and Propeller or Jet Drive, all mounted externally on the transom. Outboard motors provide both propulsion and steering control, as they can pivot to direct the thrust. Additionally, the skeg acts as a rudder when the engine is not in operation, Outboard Motors can be conveniently removed for storage or maintenance.
