I have an old 8' seaflea under the cottage that I havent used in years. I also have a 2 year old child. I think it would be super fun to make it electric and put around the lake on it with him. I have a 20Ah 36V ebike battery, so I was thinking I could utilize that.
The plan was to take an old 3hp outboard, tossing off the 2 stroke and puting an electic scooter motor and ESC in place of it.
I was thinking of either having a coupling made up and mounting the motor above the shaft and doing a 1:1 ratio. below is the setup I was thinking:

Is this complicating a ham sandwich? should I just get a trolling motor off of Kijiji and toss in a 12v battery?
Thanks!
