Hi Spike,
I have the model slipway maggie m and a model slipway our lass ll fishing trawler which are around the same size as your hull, I have them both running on a single 12v 7 amp battery with a marx 12v decaperm 5 pole motor 2,75:1 ratio these motors are high torque with low rpm with this set-up both models have a good running time.
These motors are very expensive bought new ( £150 ) but they come up now and then on that well known auction site ok2 .
Hope This helps.
