Don, do you think there might be a big enough market to introduce a lightweight 135 Pro XS 4 stroke based on the new 115 model? It would be perfect for my 16.5 foot Stratos that's rated for a 140.

Probably not a very large market.
I doubt it. Not in the US anyway. They used to sell an outboard in that range but dropped it. If it had been making them money, they would still be selling it.

Time will tell. I wouldn't say it's totally out of the question down the road... most of the new models are filling in the biggest market share "holes" (or transoms), so to speak.
I'd look for something in the bigger categories first... but you never know.
