Have a guess as to fault

[Alan Vaughan]

Happily boating one day in lake last week - 5600 rpm indicated. Next day went for 10 minutes at 3000 rpm. On stopping I noticed the idle speed had dropped back to sweet all - around 300 - 400 rpm. On restart it was reluctant and took a bit of reving in neutral - didn't sound that good - like a few cyliners missing. In drive it wouldn't go more than 1100 rpm without stalling so it was a slow trip home. Nothing blocking anything, no alarms sounding, plenty of gas and oil, just stalled each time I tried to go above 1100 rpm in drive. Motor is a 2000 series 135HP V6 carb model. Normally goes like..... Only 40 hours and little used. Any ideas? Got a couple myself but will wait for yours. Thanks folks.
