You are thinking of motor boats where the wate is inforduced into the  exhaust.  I meant a water cooled exhaust manifold which I believe is  required in marine service.

The engines would not be directly cooled by the North River water as it  is brackish.  There would a be a heat exchanger for river water/engine  coolant.
