are you running stainless tails ? hard to see in the pic, if so you can have bungs welded into them, moving to a #7 might help

Were the plugs pulled after idling?? If so, you just need the idle circuit adjusted. Jetting has nothing to do with idle.
You need to check plugs after running at various rpms with quick shut downs.

Without an PV's, you're for sure going to be rich at some rpms

the black extensions are not stainless,,4 inch exhaust pipe ,,,,,maybe i can add air fuel sensenor right before the water bungs....

A heat range 7 in the NKG plug would be a little hotter

Are they 2 or 3 circuit carbs? If they are 2 circuit you may need to jet down the transfer slot. Do you know what size idle jet is in them?

plug color is very difficult to read in a boat they look normal to me unless you run it hard then quickly shut off then wait for it to cool to even get to the plugs
