Cooling shallow water drives is a challenge. These guys are circulating the coolant through an aluminum extrusion welded into the bottom of the hull....
Last post
If muddy shallow water is your thing, then something like these motors are probably a better, less work, solution.

looks amazing, see link below. I question the spray in sound deadening foam longevity.

I have to assume the foam will not bond forever or anywhere near the hulls life expectancy.
