Abstract
An outboard motor mounting apparatus for outboard motors that control the outboard motor propeller thrust line angle of attack through a larger range than is currently available in practice today, including afterplanes (hydrodynamic lifting surfaces) in order to create boat stern lift. The afterplanes move to provide lift with a trimmable hinged portion in combination with movement of the outboard motor propeller thrust line.
