I didn't know testicles were explosive! I'll be more careful!

Seems reasonable. You will of course, be constrained with no other
option than rockets on or rockets off with a simple switch.
Simple resistive speed controls like a small electric heater or light
bulb wired in series waste power. Fancy, efficient electronic
chopper controls can make radio noise.
Your pick. Note- playing with wires and electric motors can cause
momentary surges of voltage enough to make you drop your testicles and
could spark a fire or even an explosion if you have gasoline nearby.
Be careful.

My Minn Cota outboard electric motor's electronic box "kaput". Do anybody knows, is it possible connect 12 V directly to the motor for it will work on full speed, or electronic circuit is more complex than simply regulate the voltage and motor will not work without this box?
Thanks in advance for the electric wizard!
