I would suggest a SwordFish 200 or 220 esc from Offshore electrics.
If you could weigh the hull & hardware only I can tell you why your esc went bad, most likely too heavy. You might be better off with a 6S setup in that boat using a tp pOWER 4050 motor in the 1300Kv range.
Since you have the 2200kv motor, why not try the SF200-220 esc with it first. What prop did you use to fry the 120 esc??
