Amy recommended replacements? Any reason this won't work? USCG approved.....

97 GPH won't support too much HP. Those Holley fuel pumps have a bad rap of failing often. Holley Blue or Black would be a better choice.
I run Mallory 140's that can be fully rebuilt.

I assume the one that is in it now is original with the Boat so I have no idea what make/model it is.

HP is 565.

My red Holley pump would fall to 3psi at anything over 2000rpm rpm on 500hp. I put the stock mech pump back on and ran 7psi all day long.
