Abstract
A motor support for an outboard motor in combination with a boat trailer. The motor support is pivotably attached to the trailer and has a support swingably attached to the trailer at its lower end and a Y-shaped member which receives the propeller shaft housing of the outboard motor adjacent the propeller. A strap is connected through stirrups in the distal ends of the Y, holding the motor cradled in the Y. A female telescoping member is pivoted to the boat trailer and a male telescoping member is slidably received in the female member attached to the trailer frame so that the outboard motor is held in rigid position.
