ABSTRACT:
An electric trolling motor mounting device having improved shock-absorbing capabilities. The device includes a substantially vertical bearing surface and a tube-securing element for holding the vertical tube structure which supports the motor under water, such tube-securing element being attached to the bearing surface by a two-dimensional array of horizontal compressible shock absorbers having springs held in compression between the bearing plate and the tube-securing element. A two-by-two array of four shock absorbers using coil springs is preferred. Bolts extending concentrically through the springs and each having one slideable and one fixed connection are the preferred structure, as are recesses receiving the ends of the coils.
