An outboard motor includes a drive unit and a bracket assembly mounted on an associated watercraft. The bracket assembly includes a swivel bracket arranged to support the drive unit for pivotal movement through a steering angle about a steering axis. A clamping bracket is arranged to support the swivel bracket for pivotal movement about a tilt axis. The clamping bracket includes a pair of bracket arms spaced apart from each. Each bracket arm defines a plurality of openings that are arranged next to one another in an arcuate line so as to minimize a fore-to-aft width of the bracket arm. As a result of the smaller bracket arm width, the drive unit can be pivoted through a larger steering angle.
