Rumor has it that one of the major outboard manufacturers is involved
in the design and development of a direct injected four stroke
outboard based on the GDi automotive model.

The new engine will also incorporate variable timing and exhaust gas
recirculation and as rumor has it, will use some kind of kinky
geometry block/piston design.

Again, only rumor and heard fifth hand less than ten minutes ago.
