Let's see:
2-stoke which is louder than 4-stroke technology
Huge (44" x 47") size
Heavy: Weight of 150hp is 522 pounds—that’s about 57 pounds heavier than a Mercury 150 FourStroke outboard and 150 pounds heavier than a Mercury 115 FourStroke
15 bolts to just remove the cowling
Powerhead is underwater? What could go wrong?
Engine cowling gets covered in slime due it being in the water, which would require lots of extra cleaning.
How would this beast do in the winter with ice chunks in the water or simply being covered with icing due to cold temps and it's proximity to the water?
I would find it difficult to believe anyone would think this is a good idea.
This review has some strong language, but it is worth the listen for the points he brings up.
