This is due to their Unibond\u2122 hull construction, which provides unmatched safety. The company&#8217;s founder, Richard Fisher, famously demonstrated this by cutting a Boston Whaler in half and driving away in the half with the engine.

With massive losses and a complete restructuring in order, the company was bailed out by the government. Lee Iacocca, the CEO of Chrysler at the time, famously orchestrated the deal with congress. All non automotive assets were immediately on the block. Chrysler had a pretty big marine presence, making boats and outboards under the Chrysler brand for years. My dad was a Chrysler dealer, along with Mercury in the late seventies.
