How to attach aux motor to I/O boat ?

[chick92064]

I have a 7.5 hp long shaft outboard I'd like to use as an aux motor on my Mach I MV1900CC. Can anyone point me in the right direction for what I need to rig this ?

I'm thinking perhaps I need to take a class in how to ask the question correctly. I am aware of motor brackets the bolt to the stern and swing up/down for the motor. My question is how do you rig the aux motor to the I/O unit so you can steer the aux motor from the helm ? Sorry for being obtuse.

Thanks, that is a very simple solution. As usual, I was waaaaaaay overthinking the problem.
