All based on motor specs and number of cells.
Im running a 5 cells on a stock mystic motor with
A 120amp castle ESC. Ive had great results with castle
Only esc i use. On a 24 you should be fine on 4 cells and 60amp
Esc. The short boats dont like tons of torq.

The 24 is lite so you should be fine.
Most motors that size are rated 50amps continues.
Dont over prop it,. Use gold bullet conectors. solder everything.
Stay at 3 or 4 cell lipo.
