Marine engines are engines situated in boats or marine vessels that act as propulsion devices. There are a few different kinds, depending on the size and occupation of the vessel. An outboard motor is a propulsion system for boats that consists of a small self contained unit that includes engine, gearbox and propeller or jet drive, designed to be affixed to the outside of the transom. This is the most common method of motorised propulsion for small watercraft. Outboard motors also act as a steering control. Larger ships are propelled by a mechanical system that consists of an electric motor or engine that turns a propeller.
