The boat who is pollution less cast the first stone... These 3 star 4 strokes are pretty close. If you give me credit for all the trash we pull out of the water I think I am better than net zero. This was just our first pass down the river after Irma.. We made a pile like this 3 or 4 times. http://gfretwell.com/ftp/Irma/Irma%2...om%20river.jpg We pick up stuff every time we go out tho. It is mostly trash but I will never have to buy PFDs, fenders, boat hooks, landing nets or just about anything that can fall off a boat. I always drop the plastic furniture we find on someone's dock who looks like they need it. |

The boat who is pollution less cast the first stone... These 3 star 4 strokes are pretty close. Some of those older diesels are real pollution hawgs. So were all of the old 2 strokes. I have been running 3 star motors for 16 years and I am not sure I ever saw a sheen on the water from either of them unless I just did not wash it down well after maintenance and I had some oil on the foot. I usually spray it down good with green soap wipe everything with a rag and hose it off. No sheen ;-) I will say Mercury has a better design on the oiling system than Yamaha. If you let a Merc sit for a while, the oil filter drains and does not drip. The Yamaha dumps almost a filter's worth of oil into the lower cowl. You really need to stuff a big terry cloth rag under it. Those Sam's "Bar Mops" are the perfect size. This is strange to me since the Merc 60 and my F70 use the same block and filter. |

Most of those old tech 2 stroke outboards are dead and buried, but W'hine's old diesels are still big time polluters. |

If that's really the case, why would he be so bitchy now? 'Cause he caught himself in another lie bitching about 'marine diesels', of which he supposedly has two. Now he's trying to undue it by blaming 'old' marine diesels. He's a crafty little bugger...well, not so little, I suppose. |

Most of those old tech 2 stroke outboards are dead and buried, Actually that is far from true. If you hang out on real boat groups you will find there are lots of hard core 2 stroke people who would never consider a 4 stroke. That is really when you get to the smaller sizes where a 2 stroke is a "one man carry" motor and you need a wheeled cart to handle a comparable 4 stroke. For a 15hp it is ~80-85 pounds for the 2 stroke and well 125 for a 4 stroke. (wet) Even in larger sizes the 3 cylinder Yamaha/Mercury/Mariners still have a huge following (75-90 HP) and the ox66 may be one of the most popular Yamahas of all time. There are 3 running regularly in my neighborhood. They may smoke and not idle worth a **** but they run 80-90% of WOT all day long. Mortal man also has a chance of fixing one on the water with a few hand tools. All that said, I am not in that crowd. Fuel injection and a computer does not scare me. I would rather not have a motor that is "easy to fix" I would rather have one that doesn't break, even if I am giving up a 75 pound weight penalty. |
