[Electric Boats] Electric propulsion motors

 

I'm thinking of fitting a Minn Kota 24 volt RT80EM Saltwater Motor (80 Lbs. Thrust) or something similar, bolted on the hull near the rudder of my 23 foot sailboat.... this propulsion is just to get the sailboat in and out of the creek, not more than 300 ft until I can pick up the wind. Speed is not an issue, but we do have maybe a one knot tide worst case. Does anyone have any experience of this kind of propulsion? Are there any alternatives out there for hull mounted electric propulsion units? I don't want anything hanging over the transom.  Thanks... David
