question Who has made home made motor mounts for your raft? New

From: Foley

got in a discussion last week about mounting a motor to a raft.  I am positive that someone has a home made version that works just as well as the $250+ kits you can buy.  I am thinking schedule 40 PVC trimmed out with some cut up innertube that will easily be replaceable on a rear mount system. 

I am thinking that a trolling through 5hp motor would sufficiently ride on a plastic set up if you attach it the right way.

Anybody have any examples?

PS I am looking to mount it on the small Puma or the bigger 143E Aire boat.
