Yeah i get that, but i really enjoy the lack of noise on a 4 stroke, also fuel efficiency. Today we used only 6 or 7 litres on a 5 hour trip. With a 25hp two stroke it would be about triple that. In the summer we often just go around the canals in the old city centre (5mph speed limit) and with a 4 stroke you don't even hear the engine at that speed.
So for me i'll never get a 2 stroke outboard again, but if you want to be able to carry it and you don't mind the noise, shure buy a 2 stroke outboard.
