2 stroke 9.9 kicker vs 4 stroke

I would go with a 4 stroke, I tried a 9.9 two stroke johnson on my new boat and had some problems with it.

 

1. you cant hook it up to your main tank, so you have to bring along a separate tank.

2. it smokes and going with the wind it will choke you with fumes

3. 4 strokes are much quieter

4. for 600 more you can get a brand new one shipped to your door with a 5yr warrenty and no sales tax. (if you need a short shaft you can get it even cheaper)

seems like a lot of coin to me . i see it don't have a tiller arm . so you could not use it on a row boat or if wanted to sell it would cut down the people who would want it . i bought a three old four stroke with 30 hrs on it for 1250 last fall .
