Been there. I had a Merc 4 hp on my Outlaw. It proved to be a bigger pain in the rear. Had the advantage of being lighter and more power, but going with the Minn Kota Maximizer 45 and 55 gets me everywhere that gas did. No pulling a chord and smell either.
Definitely good idea to beef up frames, but to be honest, I have a frameless pontoon with a motor mount that could handle a 4 hp motor.
I was probably one of the first in Utah to add a motor to an inflatable, and it is experiment to find what works.
Get a well built boat.
