It could be fuel issue. Try having so one sqeeze the ball when running. Or maybe you have the wrong prop. You would probably want a 17 pitch prop and prior owner might have put on a 21 or something like that.

Without knowing the size boat, load commonly carried, speed, and RPM currently achieved it is very difficult to say what could be wrong.
