A latch assembly for releasably securing a cowling of a marine propulsion engine comprising a front latch mechanism which is interconnected with at least one rear latch mechanism by a wire cable having a slack adjuster along its length. In a preferred embodiment, a single front latch mechanism and two rear latch mechanisms are linked by the wire cable to an operating lever so that movement of the operating lever causes all of the latches to be disengaged simultaneously. The slack adjuster is simple and easily adjustable to remove slack along the entire cable.
