    Default what motor/esc/batt combo for 36" Hydro?

    Hi,
    I would like to covert my 36"x18" Hydro from Gas (30cc) to Brushless. Could someone give me some suggestions as to motor/prop/esc/Lipo combos? Maybe for approx. 40mph, 50mph, and 60mph. I know cost probably goes up exponentially, so that's why I would like suggestions for a few different power levels. What would a 100A setup do for me? Also, my cowl sank to the bottom of the lake, does anyone sell those? Thanks for any input.image1 (5).jpg

    You need to provide a ton of more info, pictures if you have any. Theres plenty of places to get a cowling but whether or not it would fit your hull is for you to work out.

    Also 30cc in a 36" hull sounds pretty tight, how did you acquire this boat?

    It's a China/Ebay one. I have only used it for less than an hour like 8yrs ago, frustrated with the constant stalling on the lake, I put it away. The 30cc was just a guess.

    Are you sure that's a 36" boat. The three that I've converted were 46". I've not seen a 36" version on any of the suppliers sites.

    If it is the larger 46" version, cowls are available at this site. Just scroll down.
