Abstract
A muffler support mechanism for a small boat is capable of reducing the number of parts required to fix a water muffler. The muffler support mechanism includes a second water muffler mounted on a left recess of a support plate. A bracing flotation member is mounted on an upper part of the rear half of the second water muffler. A bonding surface of a deck of the small boat is bonded to a bonding surface of the hull. As a result, an upper end of the bracing flotation member is pressed by the deck. The second water muffler is pushed into the left recess by the bracing flotation member.
