So....if a guy were to use a 16' aluminum boat with a 25 hp engine, would he be crazy or would it work for sturgeon fishing on that region of the snake river?

If you checked the wind forecast and it was favorable you would be fine. You wouldn't want to be caught out on that water in one of their heavy winds. There is only a light current so that is not an issue at all.
The next challenge would be coming up with gear that will handle fish of that size. Some fish with lighter lines, but I would suggest lines (including the leader) of at least 50 pounds test.
