I just pulled all 6 plugs and #6 is clean as a whistle...no fuel or oil on it. Could it be that cylinder is not firing, efi prob or a bad coil?

Most likely is that it has been steam cleaned by water intrusion, BA.

Do a compression check.

I bought the boat from my cousin and both head gaskets were changed before I bought it.....but I will try the compression check on it thanks!

I've seen an exhaust chest water leak steam clean a cylinder through the exhaust port.

#6 could be getting water through a lower crank seal, also.

hope it helps]

I went out and was tinkering with it and just for the heck of it checked the torque on the head bolts....2 of the lower three were not torqued high enough. Will probably just pull the head and put a new gasket on it to be safe
