[QUOTE="muddywaders, post: 342503, member: 13234"] I am all for clean air and water however in this time of rapid fossil fuel exploitation what relative impact do small 2-cycle motors have?A drop in the bucket.If Lakes and other areas want to limit pollution or horsepower that's fine. I am sharing the waterway with diesels and big-blocks.No government can tell a man how big a yacht he can build.To buy brand new 30hp motor for my 14' aluminum boat I have to shell out $5k for something that weighs nearly 200lbs and is made overseas.What happened to all the tooling used to make the old Mercury and Johnsons?-melted down and sent to Asia along with a bunch of coal [/QUOTE]
