What they are saying in not so nice words is that it isn't the motor. Your issue is that you need to add a couple feet to your boat. An added hunt deck may help, but may be more trouble than it's worth.
My advice would be to turn very slowly.

 Re: mudbuddy unstable
get yaself an 8' 2x4,strap it across the middle of the hull then strap a 35 gal drum under each end. you should be good to go after that. you might want to use some green drums so it dont look too funny.
