Mounting trolling motor on a pontoon boat

[Darylchan]

I wish to mount an electric trolling motor on a single person, inflatable pontoon boat (Bucks Bag Alpine). I'm not fond of mounting it at the rear (hard to reach) or the front (gets in the way of fishing). Has anyone had any experience of mounting a trolling motor on the outside of the pontoon? Will it cause the pontoon to run in circles?

Thanks.
