Abstract
An intake system is for a marine drive. The intake system comprises a throttle device that receives intake air for combustion; an intake conduit that conveys the intake air to the throttle device, wherein the intake conduit has an upstream inlet end, a downstream outlet end, and a radially outer surface that extends from the upstream inlet end to the downstream outlet end; and an intake silencer coupled to the radially outer surface and configured to attenuate sound emanating from the intake system.
