          Yes, both packs would need to be run together in series. Are you OK with wiring series and parallel?

          Let me look for a 4s pack as well that you can run by itself or 2 in parallel.

              For the money and what you want to do with your boat, run the 2 2s packs in series

                      If you order from Hobbycity make sure you activate the warrenty code on the back of the batteries their have been some cases of people receving dead cells from stock. I don't want to scare you just inform you. I have not experienced that myself (knock on wood) but have had a some cells die after continued use.

                          What "c" rating is that battery? At only 3000mah it may not be up to the task, that motor can pull some amps. The mah rating effects more than just run time.

                                That's a ton better than what it was before . How were your temps? If temps where ok you can start playing around with different props, take it slow and always watch/monitor your temps and don't jump to high in diameter.
