I didn't know Evinrude made a Wankel outboard?
http://boatracingfacts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8780
Prototyped it into a racing engine, and was blowing Mercury away. It's a shame they didn't have the time and finances to really develop it. http://inlinethumb15.webshots.com/37...600x600Q85.jpg http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1380/...d1dd521590.jpg |

Even Yamaha and Suzuki tried them in motorcycles and they dropped as soon as they were introduced, it seems. |

Pretty much for the same reasons you don't see two-stroke motorcycles anymore, fuel consumption and emissions. |

Torque out the ass but slow getting wound up! |

I remember it had some miles on it, but not close to 100k. She was told by Mazda mech that rebuilt the motor that once the seal/compression ring thing wears, you get no compression and no more zoom zoom zoom. |

What was the gas mileage like? |

What was the gas mileage like? It was very high when the car wasn't running. Otherwise, nicht so gut. |
