I just ran across some old plastic boats I had as a kid.One,an old Eldon 16 inch hydroplane. missbardahl U-40 to be exact.it had 2 D batteries an your basic electric motor as was the norm in the mid 60's for over the counter toys.What I was wondering,Id like to re rig it to be a R/C electric.Are there any companies ot there that sell ,a package containing ,speed control,motor,prop equipt .I did see a few things on ebay ,which were part outs ,I realize room is critical,but,all ideas are welcome,thanks

I would be interested in seeing a picture. It sounds like you might have a collectors item in your hands. I don't think I would start hacking it up.

Sorry guys.Forgot to mention,these toys have been WELL used,so to say ,there is no longer any running gear.Ben sunk in saltwater more times I can recall.So no motor,battery clips long rusted.Anyway,there is one on ebay right now .These little hydros in good shape fetch a good buck.I just would like to tinker,BEING RETIRED,and see if I can get it running,perhaps resurrect some old times.Might even find this to be the new "HOT SETUP". Thanks Mike.From MikeComment
