That's all right, Mr Ryan. My Morse is so rusty, I could be sending him dimensions on Playmate of the Month.

Other threads on the T12 have suggested that a 15A ESC works, any Marine Viper 15 or better will do.  Or an Action P80 or P98. 
What will control a big motor will work just as well on a lesser load when discussing modern electronic controls rather than the old mechanical types.

Hi, I use both the esc s mentioned and I've never had a problem with them. Both makes are good, both are British and both will suit the T12.
   The vipers are waterproof, the actions are serviceable if you ever have a problem, or accidental damage. Your choice.

I have used the T12 for several years, in several boats, usually with a 12V 7 A/Hr Lead Acid battery and always fitted an Action P80S.
