I think that four strokes will get lighter but at a price. The new supercharges and turbos and the other tricks can make a 2.6 liter four stoke (mercs new one) and it makes the same hp as the 3.6 liter but do you want that. In theory Honda could use their 1.9 liter four cylinder and get 300 hp out of it. But would you want that on your 32 boston whaler while battling back from the cayons in 12fters.
