ABSTRACT:
An outboard marine motor housed by a cowl assembly having an upper cowl section and a lower cowl section includes various features for improving the structural integrity of the cowl assembly and for providing a water-resistant seal at the joint between the cowl sections and at various points of entry of cables and other mechanical devices. A one-piece lower skirt extends downwardly from the lower cowl section at the upper end of the depending gear case. The one-piece lower skirt is adapted for easy removal and attachment to facilitate servicing of the motor, and may be connected to the bottom of the lower cowl section in a plane substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the depending gear case.
