Do you
think something like this would work? These are not DC
however.

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Oil Compensated
Thursters
Can anyone support this statement: "Scripps has tried to fill the DC
motors with oil, but the oil gets between the brushes and the commutator,
where the insulation properties of the oil causes problems. Although it would
be possible to use high voltage to break through the oil film, the high
voltage is a safety hazard for the divers."
I was thinking about 24 or 36 volt oil compensated brushed trolling
motors, but after reading the above I looked and could not find any examples
of oil compensated brushed motors under 100 volts.
What are your experiences and thoughts?
Thanks
