Abstract
An apparatus for mounting an outboard motor on the transom of a boat so that the motor can be raised and lowered on the transom. The apparatus comprises two slidably connected brackets, one for securing to the transom of the boat and one for carrying the outboard motor, and a hydraulic actuating cylinder connected between the two brackets for moving the motor mounting bracket along a vertical line relative to the bracket secured to the transom. A reversible hydraulic pump is provided for operating the hydraulic actuating cylinder.
