My boat sat for about 2 years. I started the boat and it started right up. I took it out to the closest lake and it would not run correctly. I tried to run WOT and it just did not go. Sounded like I am missing a cylinder. When I got back home, I did a compression test. At idle, all cylinders were about 85-90 psi. With any type of power, 3 of the 6 went to 120, 2 went to 115, and the last stayed at 90 psi. The cylinder that stayed at 90 psi also bled down to 0 when engine was shut down. Not good for a big time fisherman.
