ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for mounting an outboard trolling motor to a boat for movement of the motor between a horizontal stowed position and a vertical operating position includes a track-mounted carriage which supports the motor for reciprocal movement along a horizontal boat surface, such as a deck, and a pivoting mechanism at the end of the track to tilt the motor and its mounting to a vertical operating position. The pivotal mechanism may comprise a curved track section coextensive with the horizontal track, or a split carriage mechanism in which the motor mounting portion is pivotable with respect to the track engaging carriage portion through the operation of a rack and pinion mechanism at the end of the track.
