Abstract: An outboard motor support for supporting and cushioning the lower unit of an outboard motor when the boat carrying the outboard motor is being trailered. The outboard motor support is characterized by an elongated, tubular outside support fitted with a V-shaped foot-engaging member at one end for engaging the foot of the outboard motor and a telescoping support at the opposite end, which telescoping support terminates in a yoke for adjustably engaging the frame of the trailer. The telescoping support is spring-loaded in the outside support and a rubber shock absorber is provided in the outside support near the foot-engaging member, in order to cushion the outboard motor foot against road shock.

Abstract: A seat pedestal mount for boats, which is characterized by strength, stability, ease of installation and convenience in maintenance. The seat pedestal mount includes a base plate for mounting in the deck of a boat, the base plate having a plate flange for securing the base plate to the boat deck and a downwardly-extending, tapered bushing seat for recessed mounting in the boat deck. A tapered, slotted bushing is removably seated in the bushing seat and receives a seat pedestal extension or a seat pedestal, such that the seat pedestal extension or seat pedestal is rigidly, yet removably, stabilized in the bushing seat of the base plate. When a pedestal extension is used, the seat pedestal element of a seat frame fits into the top end of the pedestal extension and the bottom end of the pedestal extension is seated in the slotted bushing, to mount the seat in rigid relationship on the deck of the boat.

Abstract: A seat pedestal mount for boats, which is characterized by strength, stability, easy of installation and convenience in maintenance. The pedestal mount includes a base plate for mounting in the deck of a boat, the base plate having a round plate flange for securing the base plate to the boat deck and a tapered bushing seat for receiving a taper lock bushing and mounting a seat pedestal extension or a seat pedestal, such that the seat pedestal extension or seat pedestal is rigidly, yet removably, mounted and stabilized in the bushing seat of the base plate. When a pedestal extension is used, the seat pedestal element of a seat frame fits into the pedestal extension and serves to mount the seat in rigid relationship on the deck of a boat.
