ABSTRACT:
A steering structure for a ship propelling device includes: a support member for supporting the body of the ship propelling device on a hull; a universal joint for connecting between a drive shaft connected to a drive source and an input shaft of the ship propelling device; a vertically driving means adapted to cause the body to vertically pivot about a pivot shaft; and a turning driving means adapted to cause the body to pivot about an axis orthogonal to the axis of the pivot shaft. The vertically driving means and the body are connected together through a link mechanism. Such arrangement makes it possible to turn the whole of the ship propelling device independently of any vertical movement thereof, contributing to reduction of the production cost and a stable steering operation of the propelling device.
