The invention relates to a marine drive (10) having a supporting frame (14) for coupling the marine drive (10) to a marine vessel; a gearcase (16) supporting a propulsor for propelling the marine vessel in water; an extension leg (18) disposed between the supporting frame (14) and the gearcase (16); and an adapter plate (20) between the supporting frame (14) and the extension leg (18). A tube (82) is in the extension leg (18). The tube (82) has a lower end (84) which is coupled to the gearcase (16) and upper end (86) which is coupled to the adapter plate (20) by a compression nut (112) threaded onto the tube (82), wherein threading the compression nut (112) down on the tube (82) compressively engages the compression nut (112) with the adapter plate (20), which in turn clamps the extension leg (18) between the supporting frame (14) and the gearcase (16).
