Default 12 volt speed controller

Who makes a good cheap mosfat type speed controller for 12 volt motors I need graduated forward and reverse speed control. A reostat type speed control would be good too but I'm not talking about a lot of amperage draw here as I'm putting it in a 50 inch long twin engine luxury yacht and want it to be scale like as far as speed goes. Thanks I hope someone can help.

Mr. Bensidus, check out the PRO BOAT Waterproof ESC PRB2314. Don't say about mossfats, but the price is good. 40 amps continuous current. $40.00, not bad. Roger

I found that the proboat blue box jumps to speed, too quickly.
It went from fast to faster.

MTroniks in the same boat went from a dead stop to slow turn to actually moving the boat then all the way up to full speed. Look up Hobby People, and then Mtroniks Viper Marine.

Also good ESC, but not water proof.
