Hey everyone, Just a few questions. I will be getting a fishcat 9IR right away and want to get an electric motor for it. I will be making it to the salt maybe two or three days a year. For one with the limited amount of salt water use it will have am I alright going with a steel frame as long as I wash it thoroughly after each saltwater session? Or is it worth it to get an aluminum frame for the extra cost? What would be the best electric motor for this application do you guys think? Am I safe getting a regular electric or will it be affected by a few uses in the salt each year? What is a sufficient lb of thrust for a 9 IR pontoon? I will be buying a deep cycle battery form costco I think, have heard they are the best for life with an electric. Thank you for any help.
