1996 mariner 50hp

[toolboat]

poor performance in rough water. changed fuel tank, no air leaks in fuel hoses, good fresh gas, rebuilt fuel pump, stator and coils check out with ohm meter, motor drops one cylinder only in rough water, runs great in smooth water. don't know if it's the same cylinder each time or not, help!

Sounds like something loose, wires, hoses. Sparkplugs wires may be getting wet, and shorting to block or case. Has this engine been worked on at a shop on hiway 19 between Homosassa and Crystal River?
