ABSTRACT:
An emergency marine cooling device to be stored in a marine vessel and to be installed onto the lower section of a marine engine used for propelling the vessel when the water pump of the marine engine has failed or has a deteriorated output, causing an overheating problem. The apparatus comprises two elongated strips of material and mounting fasteners for attaching the strips together over the lower section of the marine engine. Each of the elongated strips of material is provided with openings and protruding water scoops which are positioned over the water pump intake ports of the engine wherein cooling water is directed under the pressure created by forward motion of the engine into the intake ports providing for temporary repair to the engine. The engine then can be used to propel the vessel to safety.
