What is a boat outdrive?

Definition:

Boat's outboard motor: a power unit and attached propeller mounted at the stern of a boat outside the hull.


Think about like the Transmission and Differential in a car that drive the tires.

Hope This Helps.

Another take...

An outdrive on a boat with an inboard engine is the part of the drive system that is attached to the external part of the hull and transom.
