1987 Evinrude 150 V6 problems

Hey guys, I have a 1987 Evinrude 150 V6 on the back of a 17' Trophy bass boat. Latley the thing has been bucking and acting up. It only does this sometimes though, and randomly too. It makes me think the carbs really ain't that messed up, otherwise it would do it all the time. I noticed that if I have it running on the hose and I take the cowl off the engine, it seems to run a lot better. I'm a big time boat person. I don't know if any of yall are too, but I'd figure I'd post it. Do y'all have any ideas? Thanks

Eric
