I don't think so, I know about the boat because I have meet Bill and seen the boat in person.

What kind of information are you looking about the engine configuration? Since that engine picture was taken the turbos, exhaust and intercooler have been replaced.

We don't water cool the turbo housings but we do have a water cooled shield that protects the engine hatch. The exhaust pipes are water cooled.
