When accelerating the boat is losing power....both engines! Once in idle, the engines cut off.
 
Do a compression check and report back the numbers.

Are you still running the oil injection system. The oil lines are prone to falling off and the engine will be starved for oil in the fuel. Resulting in expensive repairs. Upgrade your oil lines or convert to premix pronto if you haven't already.

I second that! Check oil asap!
