I would stick to the 4 stroke as Woodsy said. It leaves less to chance. I like the Kawasaki myself. I owned a 2003 STX 12F 2 years ago and loved it. I am in the process of buying it back. Most newer machines have good storage. A rear step is helpful. If you are going to tube or ski make sure you get a 3 seater.
They don't put running lights on because they are not allowed on the lake after dusk.
