ABSTRACT:
A mounting arrangement for an outboard motor having a body which is connected to a watercraft mounting bracket by at least one mount is disclosed. The mount includes a resilient isolating member having a spring constant in a direction parallel to an axis extending from the front to the rear of the motor which is greater than its spring constant in direction parallel to a second line extending transverse to the first line. So arranged, the frequency of the excitation force applied to the isolating member over normal engine operating speeds does not correspond to the natural frequency of the isolating member in either direction, and resonant modes are avoided.
