I have 75hp Mariner that has b

I have 75hp Mariner that has been running good till the last trip out. Off the trailer it ran great till we had to through a long no wake area it started to act like it was loading up and wouldnt idle smooth we started fishing in one spot for a few hours when i started it back up she ran fine had dinner and started to head to the loading dock and she started to load up again and was getting smoky out the exhaust. Got home and the plugs were wet I did a compression check which all turned out to be 120 on all three cylinders you could really smell gas. All lines look good I have good spark.
Any suggestion.
Thanks
Dave
