ABSTRACT:
This invention is adapted to be embodied in an outboard motor that is comprised of a power head having an internal combustion engine surrounded by a protective cowling. The engine includes an exhaust port in communication with an exhaust pipe for discharging exhaust gases from the engine. A steering shaft is affixed to the drive shaft housing by upper and lower connections which include elastic bushings. An upper reservoir receives cooling water from the engine to cool structures adjacent the exhaust pipe and specifically the elastic bushings. The reservoir is dammed up on the forward side by the bushing and receives cooling from the cooling water.
