ABSTRACT:
A steering mechanism is disclosed for a boat equipped with an outboard motor. The steering mechanism has a pair of opposed single acting cylinders maintained in a spaced relationship by a frame member. A pair of brackets enable pivotal connection of the steering mechanism with the mounting bracket of the motor. A piston is received in and extends between the cylinders and carries a lost motion linkage connectable with the tiller arm of the motor to induce steering movement of the motor upon actuation of the piston.
