Run it off a 5 gal gas can, that takes the whole (boat side) fuel system out of the equation. If you still have an issue with WOT then its on the motor.
How long has it been since the motor ran? If its more than a few weeks/months with untreated ethanol fuel then its time to tear down carbs/fuel pump. To give you an idea how quick it happens my lawn mowers used to have an issue sitting more than a few weeks (worse over winter) if I didnt treat the fuel!
