 Can anyone recommend a suitable brushless motor/prop combination for this boat.

hello Peter and welcome to the forum madhoose :-)
 
I also will be interested in these replies posted by the gentleman that has the knowledge of brushless motors; as when the original MTB model was built; it was powered by a Graupner Speed 500 on a  7.2 volt pack, given roughly about 13,000 - to about roughly 17,000 rpm driving a 2 blade 30 mm racing prop or S prop I think they are called.    This pushed the model along at a good speed rather surprisingly.  So, that is roughly the motor specs and prop specs we are looking to replace with brushless.
 
To be honest with you; I am quite happy with this model running on a brushed motor.
 
aye

Thanks John

I may as well stick with the brushed.
