Rick35 and Homewood guessed correctly !

My friend had a local marine tech meet him at the dock, who found that the distributor cap was 'cracked' !

Tech replaced dist cap, Points, Rotor, Plugs, and now the boat runs like new.

Knowledge shared !

Thanks for everyone's feedback, always appreciated !
