Default Hydroplane Help needed

HI,

Hope someone can help me. I bought a second hand Hydroplane with most of the kit already built, it just needs radio gear adding and some finishing touches. But it does not come with the manual and that what I need help with.

I need help with the C of G, it is about 29" long and 13" wide and I think it's a Miss Bud copy or something very simalar, it is powered by a Mabuchi RS 550SH motor, how many cells should I run with this boat? I am thinking about changing the motor, what would anybody suggest?

Thank you for any help, this will be my first eletric powered boat and I'm quite excited to see her run.
