ABSTRACT:
A safety mount for a trolling motor including a clamp for attachment to the stern of a boat, a hollow mounting block pivotally mounted to the clamp, a detent arrangement disposed within the interior area defined by the block and for normally maintaining the block in abutting relationship with the clamp (the trolling motor being in operative position in the water), and a latch for latching the motor out of the water. The detent arrangement is so constructed that if the motor strikes an underwater object, the block will be pivoted with respect to the clamp and move the motor out of engagement with the object. Once the object is passed, the weight of the motor will move the block back to its normal operating position. The motor may be manually pivoted out of the water, and the block latched so that the motor remains in its inoperative position.
