I had a Johnson 6HP 2 stroke long shaft, full shift, F,N, & R. Bullet proof, ran well and weighed about 45 pounds, IIRC. We now have a 6HP 4 stroke Tohatsu at about 60 pounds, which runs perfectly. Two strokes are lighter, start easily, and with new plugs once in a while, will last a long, long time. The incremental difference in fuel costs is not much unless you run WOT for hours on end.
