The only reason to buy a two stroke these days is for a dinghy, where
the lighter weight really can make a difference as you try to put the
motor on while the boat is wiggling about under you. Also sometimes the
way the whole unit is mounted on the back of your boat may not allow the
four stroke to lie the way is has to and keep the oil from running out.

Otherwise the noise, smell, resell and fuel use demand a four stroke. I
like Honda.
