mechanic recommendation

I've got my boat back at the house. DHP said they didn't think anything was wrong with it. They ran it in the water and said it felt fine, but they didn't gps it. I took it to a buddy that has a neighbor that works on them on the side. The neighbor's been working lots of overtime so he just got to look at it. He misunderstood what we were wanting checked, so he passed an eye on my setup and not the motor. I picked it up yesterday. I was checking some stuff today and decided to make sure all the cylinders were firing. Pulled the top plug wire and the motor died. Did the same thing with the bottom and nothing changed sound or rpm wise. Didn't even stumble. I didn't pull the middle one because my channel locks were shocking me, but I suspect that would kill the motor. I'm going to borrow a compression gauge and check the compression and go from there.
