I have at 1989 SeaRay 260 CC with a single 454 engin. It starts, idles and rev's in neutral just fine but in the water it cuts out at about 2500 RPM. Where do I start?

I just bought it, the guy I bought it from told me that it was tuned up last summer and ran fine. I have made no changes yet. I was thinking fuel filter and may plugs and wires but wanted some advise before I start.

thanks! that's where I'll start! While replacing plugs I'll do the wires as well, my question is are these the same plugs and wires as I'd use on a car or truck or are there different ones better suited for a boat?
