Outboard Motor CAD drawings

[John Bell]

It's been asked here before about where to find CAD files of various outboards. Well, I finally found some on the web at the European Mercury site.

Select "Technical Drawings" then click "launch". There are 14 pages of drawings in PDF and DXF format of just outboards. Note: You have to go to page 5 before you hit the DXF files. Here is a link to the dxf of a 3.3 HP outboard. (http://www.marinepower.com/filereader/file/dxf/7/enen/outboard/2005/2-stroke/01%20-%202.5-3.3/dxf/879994.dxf)

There are also drawings of I/O's and other cool motor stuff.

Enjoy!



Here's a GIF of a 25 HP 2-stroke:

Are they life size or do have to guess at scaling them up to actual size? For getting a feel of relative sizes with various boats. What is the smallest motor they have drawings for?

All the ones I've looked at are 1:12 scale. Easy to scale up. The smallest seems to be the 3.3HP I've linked to in the original post.

Well, DUH! Wayne! I missed the 3.3 hp earlier.

This is awesome! Since this motor is shared across several brands and close in size to others, you can see if it'll fit a particular boat. Designers? Are you paying attention?

The dimensions need a little cleaning up. But they always do when you let the software try to place dimensions.
