ABSTRACT:
In a propeller driven outboard or inboard-outboard marine motor, the typical transmission comprising a transmission shaft coupled to the propeller shaft by bevel gears is replaced by a chain drive between the propeller shaft and a parallel output shaft coupled to the power plant of the motor. Torque is applied to the chain drive through a torque dependent variable pulley coupled by a belt to a speed dependent variable pulley which allow for a variable gear ratio. A chain tensioning means maintains tension on the chain.
