Depends to some extent on the model. If it's a planing boat and is usually run fairly fast you don't really need help with turning and so one ESC running both motors at the same speed is fine.
With two or more brushless motors most need to have their own ESC anyway so the question doesn't arise.

Being an ex professional sailor I tend to put an ESC in for each screw so that the boat can be controlled like the real thing, how many of us do the same and what are your opinions on the subject, makes the model more expensive but if you going to build a decent model why not do it properly ?
