Id bet your oil injection pump is going,they over oil as they wear here
Below is a link to some photos of the plugs. The plug on the left is from the top cylinder (#1) on down. #1 seems light the culprit, right? Or is #2 and 3 too wet and clean?
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Probably a simple weekend-warrior-rookie-shade-tree-wanna-be-outboard-mechanic mistake on my part. [links]
how do you know compression is good?
they make spark testers and peak voltage reading meters to make sure the inputs to the CDI and out puts are good.
measure things.
pulling plug wires off while running can cause the voltage to jump at a place it is not suppose to harming components like a the coils. [links]
did you pull them both at the same time?
how did the piston look different?
if everything you test is in spec, then it is time to dig into the fuel
If a bad spark plug remains in your engine for the long period of time, the effects can be devastating to your engine. Sooting can occur which can ruin your boat’s engine.
The length of time between spark plug changes depends on variables such as how many hours you use your boat and how you are using it. For further recommendations, consult your owner’s manual or your trusted boat mechanic. [links]
A key component of your boat’s engine, marine spark plugs take in high voltage electricity at one end and ignite a spark at the other end. That spark fires the air and fuel mixture within the engine and creates the combustion that powers your boat.
You launch your boat and begin to cruise. Before you know it, your boat engine starts acting up and your day of fun is over. You get your boat off the water and begin to troubleshoot what could have gone wrong with the engine. Could it be the spark plugs?
