Electric hydro conversion

[propdrvr]

I am curious of the dificulty in converting a nitro powered pro boat 1/12 Ms Llumar to electric power. The lakes where I run are OFF LIMITS to any nitro or gas powered boats. I have never done anything like this before, its just that I like the looks of the boat...

So...any suggestions from the more senior members? better yet, is there a hydro kit or rtr that would compare to the SV27 or the BJ26?

Thanks guys

This is what I did
8 XL and hacker 77
The lipos fit right along side the motor with no problem
I have a cooling jacket on the motor now

BUT my water is frozen so I have yet to try it out :(

I hear the miss vegas is a good choice to convert because it has a lot of room inside

but hey where there's a will there's a way right?
