Default What sort of boat? Any information?

O so my grandad had this old boat, I finally got around to picking it up and it's in rough shape. Found out that it was in fact non rc but was just started and let run. And it has a 2.5cc model Diesel engine which I haven't heard of before. I haven't run an rc boat before so I'm going in with only experience from about 3 years of flying rc planes. From what I've managed to find is that it should be a 1960's cabin cruiser??? It is missing the cabin obviously. My aims are to get it running again, probably with electric and components from hobbyking if possible. How would I get rudders going on it? Order a set from another boat and bolt it on the back? Any help will be appreciated
