    Thank you all for your advice I now have a starting point. Great video if I can get my old boat to go like that I will be satisfied. Water cooling would be no problem as it is still fitted from previous glow motor. Just back from the big city an was able to get about 95% of the fittings required. Good Luck at the fun day wish I could be there, a bit far to travel.

    Regards Robo.

    HI there I am about to resurrect an Areokits Vosper 46" Crash Rescue Tender that I built some 34 years ago and was fitted with an OS Glow Plug. It never made It Into the water due to various moves I made around the world. It has been In storage for that time and Is still In good condition. I have decided to finally finish the project I started all those years ago. I have decided to change to electric power and need some advice on the type and size of electric motor, controller, and prop that will give It a realistic turn of speed. I searched around and found your site and read some of the good advice and Ideas that are available. I know very little about electric powered boats and would appreciate all the advice I can get.
    Robo.
