What is claimed is: 1. A shift apparatus for an inboard-outboard drive having an outer drive apparatus, comprising:a hydraulic clutch disposed within a casing of the outer drive apparatus;an oil-hydraulic circuit which operates the hydraulic clutch;at least one solenoid valve that performs a switching operation of the oil-hydraulic circuit;electric wires which electrically connect the solenoid valve and an inboard controller; anda connector located between electric wires, whereina recess is formed on a joint portion between a bell housing and an upper casing, the recess including neighboring recesses respectively formed in the upper casing and the bell housing;the electric wires include a first section, which passes through the bell housing and is located between the connector and the inboard controller, and a second section, which is located in the upper casing between the connector and the solenoid valve;the connector is an electric coupling, which electrically connects the first section to the second section when coupled and which electrically disconnects the first section and the second section when uncoupled;the connector is disposed in the recess when connected, and when connected the conductor spans the width of the neighboring recesses formed in the bell housing and the upper casing; andwhen the connector electrically connects the first section of wires to the second section of wires, the inboard controller is electrically connected to the solenoid valve.
