I'm sure many of you are knowledgeable in marine carbs. I think this is a simple fix if you recognize the symptom. Motor only has 50 hours, but was not started for over a year. It starts with full choke, and will rev if I just barely wiggle the choke down, but dies at half choke or no choke. Any suggestions? ...please?

Sure, sounds like the idle passages (and maybe others) in the carbs are plugged up. The cure is to remove the carb, take it apart, clean every passage and rebuild it with new gaskets.
