I've changed spark plugs, performed a de-carb, and experimeted with the fuel mixture, and fixed the choke -- all with no results, the motor will not start easiliy when it is cold.
Once the motor starts it runs great. I'm going to check compression just becuase everything else has failed. I would have checked it earlier except that the motor runs so good when it starts that I didn't expect it to be an issue.
I've only owned the boat for about 4 months, so I may not have a point of reference for how good the motor runs, but it has good acceleration and smooth running. I did notice that the ingnition system runs off a group 31 deep cycle instead of a starting battery, could this be ab issue?
