ABSTRACT:
In an outboard motor shift device having a clutch being engageable with a forward gear or a reverse gear, a shift rod being rotatable to slide the clutch to engage with the gear, an electric motor connected to rotate the shift rod, a speed reduction gear mechanism transmitting an output of the motor to the shift rod at a reduced speed, a manual operation mechanism is provided to be manually operable by an operator and breaking output transmission train of the speed reduction gear mechanism such that the shift rod can be manually rotated by the operator, thereby enhancing reliability by enabling shifting both by actuator and manually and minimizing operation load during manual shifting.
