Default Evinrude Ficht 150 1998 will not start

Boat out of the water after winterizing for 1 year.
Launched and started right up. Filled tank with fresh fuel.
Had a good day's run with no problems.
couple of weeks later took the boat out. Motor started right up and idled out of the marina. As soon as I tried to give it some gas, it wanted to stall. Would run okay at low RPM though. Yet each time I tried to increase RPM it would want to stall. Eventually it did stall and would not restart. Had to get towed back.
Have not been able to get the motor going since! Seems like a fuel problem,yet Racor filter is okay and fuel supply to motor seems okay.
I note that when I turn on the key, the various warning lights do not come on as they used to. No alarm either.
Any ideas?

Have you checked the fuses on the engine?
