Default ESCs Stopping without notice

Hi Guys,

I have finally got the internals together in my 1/24 Fairmile D and I was test running the twin motors when one just stopped.
After turning off the circuit and turning it on again the motors work again with no problems, but then suddenly one will stop.
Upon reset and more running everything is fine but then suddenly one will stop. There is no pattern but it is a problem.
All the batteries are fully charged. Each circuit has eight NiMH cells x 9AH. The motors are 700BB (12v)

Both electric motor ciruits are independent. The only common thing is that both ESCs are connected through a Y harness to a single receiver outlet so I can use a single stick throttle.
I have attached a copy of the ESC details, and a photo of the inside of the boat. The ESCs BEC is disabled.

I am new to ESCs but have been doing RC boats for a long time. I am looking for some expertise to help me through this problem

Regards
