Default burshless set up help!

okay ive been running my losi 1/10 Xcelorin 7500Kv Brushless Combo for a while on my grupner jet boat set up, and its been working fine since. but recently my aftermarket esc watercool fried my esc up = [. now im looking for a new esc. but i dont want to spend another $130 on a new one from horizonhobby. i dont realy know about brushelss stuff too much. the original esc & motor specs are

it says Continuous Maximum Current: 100A and Momentary Peak Current: 540A does that mean to be able to run the same motor i have, i would need the same continuous & peak amps????????????????????


im looking through ebay right now and found this one [link=http://cgi.ebay.com/RC-boat-brushless-motor-ESC-w-water-cool-60A-max-380A_W0QQitemZ140259247905QQihZ004QQcategoryZ34058 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem]ebay link[/link]
