How you gonna get a serious turn of speed in a 30' pontoon boat?

Wonder if a robust Minn Kota electric motor at the bow would assist
steering...... acting like a poor man's bow thruster.

Don, after the fact, i thougth of that myself. and with it cabled up
to the steering, it could also act as a rudder I suppose, or jsut
throw it in and use it to aid docking ect.

that's also and idea.
