The aluminum plate in the cockpit of my 44 shows it was built in Rhode Island.
It is the 7th one built.

You should also try to rev the engine with it out of gear. If it has the same
problem of reaching full RPM then fuel and air delivery are nearly to only
possible culprits.

Yanmar exhaust elbows are evil. I’ve has Alera for 10 years and am on my third.

I have never had the exhaust riser inspectedI now know what one is
and what it does (didn't before)) and even if turns out it is something
else, I will be checking or, having checked, the exhaust riserdon't
want or need the damage from one of them to failing if it can be avoided.
If replaced should be good just a common problem with the symptoms you

Mixing elbow, muffler (from small SS to larger resin) and exhaust hose
were all replaced a few years back. I'd be surprised if the problem was
there.

What he said. Was also with BoatUS forever, til they changed to Geico
underwriting, then premiums went thru roof. Now with Progressive. Whichever way
you go, if you’re racing, make sure you’re covered. Keep liability up there.

Carbon buildup in the exhaust mixing elbow can be a problem on the 2 cylinder

Just had the same symptoms on my Yanmar Sb8.
My exhaust elbow was almost completely blocked causing excessive back pressure.

With the 12 knot breeze, were there some moderate waves? Was the boat
hobby horsing? If so, you might have stirred up sediments in the tank. 2
years is long enough for them to form. This is a situation where a vacuum

Had a Yanmar 2GM on my previous boat. Regular service is the key to best
performance on any engine. After 16 years, it might be a good idea. Benign
neglect will do you in every time.

Recommending two things:
