Abstract
A latching mechanism for connecting the top portion and tray of a cowling which surrounds an internal combustion engine of an outboard motor. In the preferred embodiment, a pair of keepers, one secured to the front side of the top portion of the cowling and the other secured to the rear side of the top portion, engage with a connecting mechanism, secured on the front and rear sides of the tray of the cowling, to connect the top portion and tray of the cowling with each other. An operating lever supported for rotation about a vertical shaft is operatively connected to the connecting mechanism such that rotation of the lever releases the connecting mechanism from the keepers so that the top portion of the cowling can be detached from the tray.
