ABSTRACT:
A bracket is provided for supporting an electric powered outboard motor, such as a trolling motor, and a battery relative to a small marine vessel, such as a Hobie Cat, in order to provide propulsion during becalm conditions. The motor and battery bracket includes a chamber for housing a D.C. electric battery and a transom plate projecting therefrom in a generally vertical plane to which an electric powered outboard motor or trolling motor can be clamped. The latter bracket is preferably constructed for vertical adjustment. A quick connect/disconnect coupling secures the bracket to structural members of the marine vessel, specifically to the dolphin striker post and dolphin striker rod of a Hobie Cat catamaran.
