ABSTRACT:
In an outboard motor, an extension case (member constituting a frame of the outboard motor) has the natural frequency (resonance frequency) of higher than the vibration frequency produced when the engine operates at maximum speed. Since this configuration prevents the extension case from resonating during operation of the outboard motor, noise (more specifically, noise produced by the outboard motor) propagated to the outside can be reduced.
