It sounds like your carbuartors need adjusting, also, could be bad gas, bad fuel flow, I'd run a search on correct carb adjustments. Might be just a turn of a screw.

Hey also, do you know about accelerating while in neutral? just push in the button on your gear control and in will disengage your gear lever, allowing you to "rev up" your engine.

Are you choking correctly?.To set fast idle on this boat grab throttle lever at the base and pull it out, then push the throttle forward. To choke push the key in when you crank the engine.

There are many possible causes of youre problem there is no way for us to tell without more information from you that you can't give us because it doesn't seem like you are familiar with boats or engines i suggest you do some resaerch on two stroke engines and carbeurators you can probably get an owners manual off ebay for 20 bucks on a cd i'm getting one for my 1986 good luck.
