I have an 18.5' bayliner with cuddy. I lost rpms and couldn't get on plane. I pulled the spark plugs to find that the #1 plug electrode and all had been apparently melted off. I at first thought that it was a defective plug. I replaced them and the boat would run for 5min at wot and then I would lose rpms to fouling plugs. I suspected a carb problem at first but now I think I have an ignition issue. I read an older posting with the exact same problem posted about a year ago but wasn't able to draw a conclusion from it.
