Default trying to figure out where this came from

so my mom is kinda like a hoarder, but knows how to make it look nice lol but she tossed me this toy and said it was mine when I was like 4 years old and it's a electric outboard motor for a boat, it's got xt300 printed on it and underneath it says by nylint? so I tried typing it in the google and can't find anything, can anyone help?
I'll try and take a pic in a bit

not mine but found a pic lol http://cgi.cafr.ebay.ca/toy-antique-...-/260726847067

Strap it on to the back of your scaler and fire it up for the water crossings.

I used to ask for one of those every christmas when I was little. Truck,boat,trailer. It came with a metal nylint truck with plastic wheels, plastic boat trailer with plastic wheels and a plastic bass boat with on of those motors. The motors ran of two AA batts IIRC and only drove in a circle.

ooohhh lol alright was kinda confused lol the only thing I can think of as to why I had one was because I got a really creative mind, and it wouldn't have surprise me if the boat I had, carried some kind of rocket or torpedo or depth charge being young and knowing what picallo peats can do after crushing up the powder I'm still amazed that I never blew one of my fingers off when I was young
