Not permanently. But a tank or 2 mixed at the usual 50:1.
Product information here: https://penriteoil.com.au/assets/pis_pdfs/10 TENTHS RACE CASTOR OIL 20W-40 (Full Synthetic).pdf

I recently won 8L of it at auction for a good price. And you know, it smells like speedway :D so water skiing would have a unique smell to it. far nicer than normal TC-W3 mineral or synthetic 2T oils.
Unlike some castor oils. this is an ash-less formula
Boat/motor is used for water skiing in fresh water.

Am I nuts. or just send it.... ahahah.

''Doesn't mix well with others'' is a personality trait with castor oil, and hard carbon deposits. I've only used Castrol R, and it behaves like castor oil. But Penrite say they have tamed it's problems...you can only give it a go, and report back.

Don't castor oil fumes have a laxative effect? I think ww1 piolets had that issue

I can't find any mention of it being used in two-cycle water-cooled engines, ie outboards. Aren't racing go carts air cooled?
 
They use a multitude of types Rotax, Yamaha, and Honda both in liquid/air cooled.

Castor has been used in Motocross for ages. As such, air/liquid cooled. Oil of this type doesn’t distinguish in protection from the type of cooling effect.
