    Abstract: A method for reversing a watercraft is disclosed. The watercraft has a reverse gate and a reverse gate actuator operatively connected to the reverse gate for moving the reverse gate between at least a stowed position and a reverse position. The method includes moving the reverse gate from the stowed position to the reverse position with the reverse gate actuator in response to receiving a reverse signal. The reverse gate actuator is controlled such that a movement speed of the reverse gate depends on at least one of a speed of the watercraft and a motor speed of a motor of the watercraft.

    Abstract: A marine outboard engine for a watercraft has a stern bracket for mounting the marine outboard engine to the watercraft, a swivel bracket pivotally connected to the stern bracket about a generally horizontal tilt/trim axis, and a drive unit pivotally connected to the swivel bracket about a steering axis. The steering axis is generally perpendicular to the tilt/trim axis. A hydraulic actuator is operatively connected to the stern bracket and the swivel bracket for pivoting the swivel bracket and the drive unit relative to the stern bracket about the tilt/trim axis. A pump is mounted to the swivel bracket. The pump is pivotable about the tilt/trim axis together with the swivel bracket. The pump is fluidly connected to the hydraulic actuator to supply hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic actuator.

    Abstract: A gear case assembly for a marine propulsion system has a gear case, a driveshaft, a propeller shaft, and a transmission chamber. A driveshaft passage fluidly connects to the transmission chamber. A lubricant return passage fluidly connects to the transmission chamber and the driveshaft passage. A pump is driven by the driveshaft. A first lubricant filling port fluidly communicates one of the lubricant return passage and the driveshaft passage with an exterior of the gear case. A second lubricant filling port fluidly communicates one of the lubricant return passage and the transmission chamber with the exterior of the gear case. First and second plugs are selectively disposed in the first and second lubricant filling ports respectively. A check valve is disposed in the lubricant return passage between the first and second lubricant filling ports. The check valve prevents lubricant to flow through the check valve away from the transmission chamber.
