I have did the decarbing procedure with the seafoam.now my outboard is running rougher then before. I pulled the sparkplug and it looks okay. I drained the seafoam mix and put in fresh gas with oil still running a little rough and smoking. Any ideas or tips

After any decarb, your idle mix will probably need to be adjusted, and even your carb might need some cleaning/rebuild depending on how much deposits have been dissolved blocking jets.

That makes sense it seemed like it was running on the rich side

This link may help pdjp. After you have the carb dialed in while in the test tank, take it out and run it at WOT for 20-30 with your normal fuel/oil mix in order to burn off all of the deposits loosened during the decarb process. This link should help with the carb.
