I'm consider getting power for a 9 ft 6 by 4 ft 9 LEX-96 Achilles Inflatable. What's been your experience using an electric trolling motor to power an inflatable boat used as a tender? What size trolling motor is appropriate for the boat? Thanks in advance for sharing you wisdom.

I use one.

I use a Minn Kota rt55s (the saltwater version w/55lb thrust.) I like it a lot. It's about the equivalent of the 1.5HP 2 stroke I use on my 8 ft RIB. I'm using a pair of 35Ah AGM batteries for energy.
