Nice build and colors. Wanted to bring up as it appears the lake water temp your boating in is 59.4 degrees so possible is causing the engine coolant temps to be low at 149 degrees. The 600 sci uses a 160 degree T stat. Notice that the engine coolant temp has not moved off 149 degrees...
Volvo penta used 3 different ecms for the 496 starting in 2001 thru out actually 2012 as they bought up a ton of the 496 long blocks when GM quit making the 496 Dec 31 2009. Also there is about 10 different harnesses used thru out for the Volvo 496. It is important to make sure you have the...

Possible ecm is repairable. There is many engine sides / voltage sides and even owner bad habits that can cause ecm failures over and over again. If you need help one can reach out in PM. There is only one place that actually offers a possible internal repair and its not in CA either.
