I don't know of a motor mount specifically for your toon, but I saw several at Sportsman's a while back. I made a mount out of 2x4's for mine. it's a little heavy but i don't worry about losing a hundred dollar motor or a 50 dollar battery. I may scale it down next year.
Having a motor's nice, especially in windy conditions, or when you want to fish a long distance from your launch point. I don't mind rowing in calmish waters, but rowing in waves really sucks. Plus it leaves your hands free to fish, since you can steer with your fins.
My wife and I tied out toons together at strawberry, and i pulled her around all weekend. that's why she outfished me. I was too busy navigating.
Remember that you need to register your pontoon if you put a motor on it. It's not all that expensive (about $20), but it's a pain. I even had to get a title for mine.
