I would think that in recent years, fuel economy and emissions are becoming buzzwords in the small boat motor department - forcing manufacturers to use 4-cycle gassers. Since its easier to make a 4-stroke quiet and they lend themselves well to sump-style lubrication (no gas-oil mix reqd) it makes sense.


I now have a new vacation destination - that place in Mass. that has PT boats on display - I thought battleship park in Mobile Bay AL was cool =)
