Dieter König (19 May 1931 – 15 August 1991) not only raced hydroplanes, but was also responsible for manufacturing the engines that powered them. During the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s his "König" engines dominated the sport.
The engines were manufactured in his hometown of Berlin, Germany. They were used in Grand Prix motorcycle racing powering Kim Newcombe to second place in the 500cc class of the 1973 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season, as well powering Rolf Steinhausen/Josef Huber to win two World Sidecar Championships.
