ABSTRACT:
In an outboard motor adapted for mounting on a boat and equipped with an internal combustion engine, an electric motor, a battery for supplying voltage to the engine and electric motor, and a controller for controlling the operation of the electric motor, the controller is disposed near the battery. In other words, the controller is not installed on the outboard motor side where the engine and the like are present but on the boat side where the battery is installed. As a result, the effect of the vibration and heat of the engine on the controller is minimized so that the controller can utilize simpler structural features for vibration and heat resistance and is also advantageous in terms of cost.
