ABSTRACT:
A protective motor mounting mechanism for motors and propellers mounted at the lower end of a shaft and in the water which includes a clamp for fastening the rotor mechanism to the motor shaft and a stator mounted to a fixed cross piece and a release lever portion. The rotor and stator cooperatively engage with other to maintain the shaft in a vertical position and place the motor and propeller in a force exerting condition in the water. A release lever is connected to the stator and is biased by a helical spring to and upward and connected position. The release lever is movable to a motor and stator disconnected position and the motor shaft, motor and propeller lifts out of the water. If the motor or propeller strike an object in the water while in the force exerting condition, the spring bias is overcome and the motor shaft, motor and propeller mechanism are removed from the water.
