Fuel delivery problem would be my first guess. Replace the filter
elements, check the hoses for collapsed inner liners, maybe a bad fuel
pump?
You can eliminate a lot of the fuel system by connecting a known good
hose to a portable tank directly to the fuel pump. That can allow you
to isolate the problem to the engine side or the boat side.
