it would help keep our lakes and streams clean, but not everyone can afford a new four stroke. and not everyone would want one. in 2005 I bought a new nitro 640 lx with a mercury 60 hp four stroke. and it just bearley could get it up on plane. the boat is rated for a 90 hp. but a 90 hp four stroke weights almost 400 pounds. so the 60 hp four stroke wasn't much. took it back. replaced it with a 2006 mercury 2 stroke 90 hp. auto oiler. very little smoke, will jump up on plane and run 44 mph with a 19" pitch prop. the four strokes are to heavy and to weak. the only good thing about them, is they don't smoke.
