Default Nitro to Electric

Hello i'm from the Darkside ( Nitro ) and I have decided Nitro sucks becasue there is just to much messing around for a few hours fun. Sick of things going wrong with them silly chinese crap engines.

So the boat I have is a Volvo b-24 Nitro 18 Team Infinity engine Now the boat has a Very good design hull and I live the way it looks and handels. But I dont like the Nitro crap no more I just want to put my boat in the water and Go, None of this tuning it up everytime a cloud comes out. I want something that going to move like it should and not struggle, So if I start by ripping everything out the boat apart from the steering servo water pickup and outlet, Then I should have loads of room to get my Motor and ESC and Failsafe in there.

I not made of money but probs looking to spend about mmmm £100 maybe a little more duno. To convert this Nitro crap into Electric ( Why oh Why did I get a Nitro in the 1st place )

So I would like you to reccomend a good set up for a decent rig. eg. what motor, ESP, Battery and so on. Also what sort of running time am I looking at becasue When I used to have electric cars back in the days, it was like 8mins and you were packing up to go home.

anyway any help would be great.
