HA!

While it was partly meant as a joke....

the reality is that 2 stroke outboards are eventually going to go the way of 2 stroke motorcycles and lawn mowers. I know a lot of guys prefer them and there are power to weight advantages, but the blue smoke sucks! And the four strokes start like a car, every time. And you can troll all day at idle speed with them without gumming up the plugs (and not choke to death).

So, resale value on them is necessarily going to be lower.
