Will add: The electrics are nice and quiet but often don't do that well in the wind and you have to lug around that PITA deep cycle battery. The 4 stokes tend to be a little heavier as well, at least liquid cooled ones and they have no "soul". They are quiet and smooth trollers though. With the 2 stoke you get the exhaust and odor that many don't like. Too me it is almost like pipe smoke... I kind of like the smell in measured doses! Same reason I still like old Hodakas too... grateful I was around for the 60's and early 70's!!!
