Thread: Inflatable pontoon catamaran set up ideas

Well there are 1 or 2 places I want to hunt that a wee lightweight boat would be ideal for access so I have quitely been keeping an eye out for a suitable project.
Last night I bought a Maxxon inflatable pontoon catamaran.
It has a transom to support a small outboard and I think it would be ideal for crossing rivers and possibly even going the odd rafting trip (nothing too serious)
So what I'm wondering is has anyone had any experience with mud motors like this https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/b...ing/2622128197
In my eyes it looks like an ideal setup for navigating shallows, but is it required or would something like this be all I need ? https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/b...ing/2620854917
Or has anyone got a mud motor/longtail collecting dust they wanna sell ?
I've still gotta sort logistics of getting the Maxxon freighted from Auckland to Christchurch so have plenty of time to look at options.
Look forward to everyone's opinions.
