ABSTRACT:
A boat stabilizer for attachment to the lower drive unit of a boat motor. The stabilizer comprises a first lifting member having a first interior side wall for positioning adjacent to a first side of the drive unit and a first arm portion for extension around the drive unit, and a second lifting member having a second interior side wall for positioning adjacent to a second side of the drive unit and a second arm portion for extension around the drive unit toward the first arm portion. The second interior side wall is spaced from and opposes the first interior side wall forming a slot therebetween for receiving the drive unit. The first and second arm portions are removably attached together and selectively movable toward and away from each other for varying the width of the slot. The ability to vary the width of the slot for receiving the drive unit allows the stabilizer to be adjusted to fit virtually any conventional outboard or inboard/outboard boat motor.
