INBOARD OUTBOARD DRIVE AND MOUNTING THEREFOR

摘要

An inboard outboard drive is at the housing portion passing through the hull provided for sealing and damped support, with a resilient element with a non-collapsible crosssectional shape which is subject to a constantly acting compressing force, conveniently generated by the weight of the engine. When cracks occur in the resilient element, the edges of the cracks are pressed together by this compressing force, whereby penetration of water into the hull is prevented or at least rendered more difficult. The invention is suited for application in inboard outboard drives of the S-type as well as of the Z-type.
