ABSTRACT:
A flexible cylindrical boot with a plastic reinforced opening containing multiple nylon rivets for connection to one or more nylon cords is mounted around the shaft of a small outboard motor. A telescopic handle attached to the reinforced opening guides the boot around the motor shaft after a garden hose is attached to a connector integral with a bottom of the boot. Fresh water from a faucet fills the boot and the motor is run in an idle condition to permit salt water flushing of the coolant system. The brackish water is then siphoned from the boot for dry storage of the motor in an upright position attached to the transom or lazarette of a boat.
