I do hold that against them, but I do not know how good of an engine shop Fred White's is.
I really have no clue what the purpose of your post was?

Pretty common sense that the company's name is the family's last name, none of that pertains to my post, nor changes the fact that they might sell "Marine" engines to other forms of boat racing besides offshore endurance racing. So no matter what the engine actually makes for power, do you disagree that it might be more applicable in "white water rapids jet boat racing"?

I was giving info. Not just to you, but whomever that may not have known.

It appeared you took the "White's Racing" and assumed for whitr water jet boat racing.

Again, I was just putting info out there. That's all.
