Default Smoked motor - suitable replacement?

The motor smoked the first time I ran the boat:

- Boat: Billing Boats, White Star (length 54cm), www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/billing_boats_white_star.html

- Battery: LRP Hyper Pack 4000 – 7.2V, www.lrp.cc/en/products/vtec-batteries/stick-packs-6-cells/produkt/lrp-hyper-pack-4000-72v-6-zellen-nimh-stickpack/details/

- Motor: Graupner Speed 400 6V (3321), www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/graupner_3321.html

Battery is connected to the motor through a plain on/off switch (full speed all time, no speed control, no rc). I control the rudder with a rc taken from a cheap rc car.

What is a suitable solution to the problem?

Thanks,
Anders
