2007 Volvo Penta 5.0GL Won't idle once engine warms up

Need some help, after a long cold wet winter we took our boat our for the first time, everything was running great for the first 45 minutes and when we went to slow down the engine would die. We tried to restart in neutral with no luck but was able to get it started once we took it out of gear and had the throttle down. Once you get it started you have to keep it revved up or it will die again. The boat runs perfect at anything over 10 RPM's. We had the carburetor rebuilt and adjusted two times by a certified boat mechanic, we put the boat back on the water and it appears to run great again until it heats up. Temperature gages appear to be running normal.
Any ideas out there??? We are really frustrated.
