ABSTRACT:
An over-center type latching device used to hold a deck mounted electric outboard in its retracted position on the deck of a boat. The latching device includes an arm member pivotally mounted at one end to a mounting bracket for the electric outboard, and a head member pivotally mounted to the other end of the arm member. The head member receives and fits around the support tube of the electric outboard, and is rotated over-center so that the spring pressure of the tube holds the latching device in a latched position. The head member may also include a lever for ease of operation and a safety lock that prevents it from being rotated until the safety lock is manually deactivated.
