...their boat was taking on water whenever they tried to start the vessel's engine...

Now listen to me carefully. Do you have a pen? Write this down. There's a hosey looking thing that goes from a thingy that looks sort of like a can of tuna stuck to the part of the engine facing you, into a big blocky part of the engine, up top and to the side. You'll notice that one side of the big hosey is not attached to the tuna can or the blocky thing.

But in all seriousness I once did have water coming in through an air intake on a Yanmar 3GM30F... No kidding. I never figured that one out.
