With as few hours as those engines have on them, I wouldn't be too concerned.. What I would is be sure to sea trial the boat and make sure they get up to their max rpm which you can find on the Yamaha website. If they do your compression is probably fine. I would also check the lower unit oil for signs of water intrusion.. If the oil has water in it it will be milky/tan color.
