Will I need a keel to maintain direction if putting an outboard on a 2-surfboards catamaran?

I’m building a planing boat by bolting two surboards onto the underside of a piece of marine plywood so that they form a catamaran.
The whole thing will be powered by an outboard motor of 5HP.
Will this start sliding slideways and doing uncontrollable stuff on me if I make turns at speed, or will I be fine?
What do you reckon I need to do to make this handle safely?
