    As i remember, Chrysler had to shed the marine division when they went through the government bailout in 1984. The buyer was Bayliner/US Marine ,who continued the line of motors ,making minor changes, some of which were not too good. Lots of Bayliner boats and Force outboards were sold in the next 10 years or so. Google Chrysler marine , a couple good timelines of the whole history can be found there.
    I don’t believe anybody else made motors for Us Marine under the Force name,but i could be incorrect there.EDIT for details.
    Also of interest Chrysler is the only US company that manufactured boats, trailers and motors, and a rig to tow it with. the whole package.Beat that.
