Well I've boated with two stroke power for 4 decades and went to the dark side briefly and came back to OB power now Verado Power. I have no desire to do inboards again.
I haven't used the new Verados enough yet to give a full opinion yet. The DTS is incredible and they are so quite and user friendly around docks. At WOT you can talk normally and hear behind my windshield. I feel the 400Rs will prove to be a great compromise between both IO and two strokes.
There are so many set up variables and modifications which easily cross all makes and hull types of OB boats. S and F is good but typically I have found geared more towards two stroke and smaller hulls. I think and Outboard section would be very valuable.
I don't miss watching and adding two stroke oil to resivoirs but I do miss the smell of burnt two stroke oil in the mornings. It smells like victory.......

I was trying to cut to the chase here...not get peoples panties in a wad.
S&F has a full Low-Emissions section including 4 pokes. I came from outboards and still have an STV, and IMO coming to OSO for outboard info was/is a waste of time. Technically there is no motor section whatsoever here at OSO, just General Q&A and Do it yourself boating on a budget. There should have a been a HP/motor section years ago. How about add both.
