ABSTRACT:
An outboard motor for a dinghy is stowed on the swimming platform of a boat during periods of which the dinghy is being towed, or stored. An adjustable bracket securable to the swimming platform provides a vertical panel disposed in the front-rear direction for receiving the mounting clamp of the outboard motor, which positions the motor crosswise with respect to the boat, and in a position shielded from spray or other accident. The mounting bracket has an angular cross section providing a base flange having openings that register with the usual open structure of the swimming platform for receiving bolts holding the bracket in position. A pad is securable to the propeller drive housing, and interposed between the housing and the surface of the swimming platform to protect both the platform and the motor.
