ABSTRACT:
A device for preventing the theft or unauthorized use of an outboard motor, of the type having a remote fuel tank and a detachable fuel line, locks to the fuel line coupling of the outboard motor, thereby preventing the unauthorized connection of the fuel line to the fuel line coupling so that the motor cannot be used. The device includes a body having recesses or sockets therein for receiving and covering members, including a fuel nipple, which extend from the fuel line coupling; an engaging member that selectively engages with a projection on one of such members, or another facet of the motor or housing; and an arrangement for lockably holding the engaging member in engagement with the projection or facet. One version of the device fits an Evinrude or Johnson outboard motor; another version fits a Mercury outboard motor.
