Some of the companies that make outboard motors are Mercury, Evinrude, Johnson, Honda, Yamaha, Mariner, Nissan, Suzuki, OMC and others. You can purchase an outboard motor online at varies sites and you can purchase parts for most brands if that is necessary. There are hundreds of different dealers that have an online presence that guarantee you an outboard motor that will work for your boat.

Outboard engines on boats where developed as a self-contained unit with engine systems and a propeller. It is mounted at the stern or rear of the boat and is the most common way to propel small boats. It provides steering controls and is designed to pivot and control the orientation of the propeller.

The two-stoke engines have high emissions and causes some environmental concerns that have added cost to the development of the technology. Hence, some people tend to prefer the four-stroke outboard motor. It has meet all expectations based on emissions standards and fuel savings.  It costs a little more to owned one of these motors but less to operate them. Weight issues are more important in a four-stroke than a 2 stroke cycle motor so you have to pay attention to what weight is in the boat and where that weight is located.
