A steering connecting device for a boat couples the steering of a primary propulsion device and an auxiliary propulsion device. The primary propulsion device has an outer surface and is attached to the transom of the boat and an auxiliary propulsion device. There is a hinge assembly hingeably attached to and essentially parallel to the transom of the boat. There is a mounting plate fixedly attached to the hinge assembly. A tie rod is rotatably attached at a first end to the outer surface of the primary propulsion device and rotatably attached at a second end to the mounting plate. The auxiliary propulsion device is rigidly attached to the mounting plate. As the primary propulsion device is rotated from left to right during steering of the boat, the mounting plate also rotates from left to right thereby rotating the auxiliary propulsion device in unison with the primary propulsion device.
