Volvo Penta 5.7 gas / Rinker 27Vee 2005

Hello, 1st time on here. engine running fine with no starting issues. About 20 mins into a ride i advanced to full throttle about 3200 RPM and within about 1 minute the engine just shut off. It would then crank but not start.
Got towed to the dock, a guy then checked it and said both fuel pumps are working and it has spark. It sounds normal when cranking. Is there electrical switch in the throttle that would cause this. Will it crank if the nurtural switch is bad?
My boat is docked at the Gold Nugget in NJ.
Thanks in advance for any help. Tom
