Abstract
In an apparatus for fixing a cowling assembly of an outboard motor, a base member is provided with a locking plate and an intermediate plate. The locking plate has a jaw portion and a stay-receiving face for clamping a stay when the cowling assembly is locked. The intermediate plate has a first stopper portion, a second stopper portion and a cam-receiving portion, In the locked state of the cowling assembly, the first stopper portion is engaged with the locking plate. In the released state of the cowling assembly, the second stopper is engaged with the locking plate. The intermediate plate is moved in a direction to release the cowling assembly, by means of an operation lever arranged at a front portion of a bottom cowling. A spring interposed, in its compressed form, between a spring seat of the locking plate and a spring seat of the intermediate plate urges the locking plate and the intermediate plate to rotate in such a direction as to engage the locking plate with the stopper portions. The operating lever is connected to an intermediate plate of a rear locking mechanism.
