Default Not carb...what else?

So I did the decarb thing and am still having this same issue...so it likely is not carbon buildup.

Here's what happened: last weekend while running down the bay at 4K after about 1/2 hr engine loses rpm. I back off
Check everything
Seems ok
I turn around head home running about 3.5 k no problem
All is well

Next day check fuel filter, oil etc
Looks fine
Run down bay 4K
Exact same spot it happens again

Run back to dock 3.5k no problem

Check everything filter, fuel line connections, etc again tonight. Fire it up, run down the bay,same thing; cuts out losing rpm, bad vibration. Check ball-it's fine. Hit choke button-no change.

Shut it off, re-start and am able to run home at low rpm running smoothly.

So it runs fine for about 10 mins, then repeats the above scenario-3 times in a row.

Thoughts?

Tx
Bill
