PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an outboard engine capable of minimizing resistance (agitation resistance) generated by agitating a lubrication oil and limits the outboard engine from increasing in a longitudinal direction.SOLUTION: In an outboard engine 10, a transmission 25 is connected to an engine 22; an output shaft 27 of the transmission 25 is freely rotatably supported by a taper roller bearing 44; the output shaft 27 is connected to a propeller shaft 41 via a bevel gear mechanism 36 that is housed in a gear chamber 67. The outboard engine 10 includes: an oil pump 76 communicated to the gear chamber 67; and a guiding oil path 75 for causing the oil pump 76 to communicate to above of the taper roller bearing 44. Driving the oil pump 76 guides lubrication oil 68 inside of the gear chamber 67 to above of the taper roller bearing 44 via the guiding oil path 75. |
