Default water cooled 4 stroke?

Does anyone know of a source for marine glow 4 strokers anymore? Seems a long time ago OS had one. Or maybe a water jacket system. I have an FS-70 and a 52 I'd love to adapt to a displacing work type craft. Being a fan of 4 strokes on aircraft, it seems that the lower RPM exhaust note might be slick on this type of project.

My thoughts exactly DGW, great sound, wide range of torque to play with, and not the type of boat that needs screaming rpm's....
I've seen a few of the old O.S. .60's on e-b__ , however most have been too old!

I'm planning for the same type powerplant some day. Actually twin .40 four-strokes. I am thinking that making a cooling jacket like the Octura Kool Klamp that was once available could work on a four-stroke. Since they only fire every other revolution they inherently run much cooler than the two-stroke glow engines. I don't think a lot of external cooling would be required.
