Need ideas/advice front-mounting an electric

Hi all, after a year of making modifications to my 13' Seamax Inflatable, I have only a couple of things to do.
Since I have a merc 9.9 I have used all space on the transom and would like your ideas on how I can mount an electric on the Bow?

All ideas welcome, Thanks!

Scott

Something like this might be a suitable starting point or give an idea of how it could be done

Outboard Bracket Small/Medium for inflatable boats, dinghy and RIBs

That bracket is for stern use on a inflatable that does not have a transom biult in, usually for cheap ones, will not work at bow which has a completely different shape. Will need a bow extension of some kind to mount an electric engine at bow front.

Happy Boating
