The engine idles fine but as soon as you put it into gear it stalls. The carburators look clean. Ran a week ago just fine for a couple of hours. The next time out when it went into gear it would just stall.

Boat didn't see the water last season. I treated the gas but could that be it???

See if you can get someone to squeeze the primer bulb a couple of times as you put it into gear.

What did you do to determine that the carbs were clean?

Have you dumped the fuel filters & checked for water?

what you can see of the carbs without disassembly is not what needs to be cleaned.
