On a similar vein, I’ve been researching the 4 cylinder four stroke Yamaha and Suzuki engines for a possible retrofit on my boat. It’s amazing the power being squeezed out of increasingly smaller motors

They have come a long way for sure. They aren't the smokey rough running machines of the past. Engine design has always been an interesting art to me. It's a slow process the evolution of the internal combustion engine buts it's amazing how powerful today's four cylinders are compared to ones from the 70s for instance.

Never was a fan of electric motors but I think once the battery tech comes a little further we are going to see electric motors do some amazing things.
