Yes, it could be, and I'm not around boats that much, but the few American V8 powered ones I've seen have had Holleys. If it turns out to be a Carter(Edelbrock) the parts situation will be good. If it's a Quadrajet, it will be a little more obscure.

Carters are tunable with different needles and jets readily available. The problem with them is that the pistons and bores that move the needle in and out of the main jet wear out.
