Don't forget to get a saltwater model like a Great White or riptide. I just put a Great White w/ 67 lbs. of thrust on the bow of my 19" Bay Boat and it works great. If the motor is 24 volts u will need 2 batteries. I also hard wired a 2 bank cabela's (made by quest) charger in the boat. They also have chargers that work off the boats'
alternator at cabelas or bass pro shops.

I don't know about the slide-off mount. I put both batteries in the front storage compartment of my boat (it's behind the casting deck). This worked out great for me as the boat rides much better due to the weight transfer (I have a fairly heavy 4-stroke 115 Suzuki on the back). This may or may not apply to your boat.
