Abstract

A drainable protective boat motor bag apparatus including a boot defining a bag for fitting over the propeller and stem of an outdrive of a motor mounted on the stern of a boat. The bag includes a channel extending from the mouth thereof to the closed end of the bag for receipt of an open ended hose such that, once the bag has been positioned over the stem, a hose may be inserted for pumping of residual from such bag. A tie string may be incorporated around the mouth of the bag for tying it to the stem and, if desirable, a separate protective sack may be included for covering the propeller blades to protect them from direct exposure to the bag itself.
