Your first issue - running for 30 minutes and then dying, is a classic example of a coil going bad. When they get hot, then don't work. Running at lower RPMs keeps the coil cooler, and also letting it sit for 15 minutes cools it off. If you have electronic ignition, which I recommend you get if you don't already have it, then you need a coil from Moyer Marine. Don't just use an automotive ignition coil because they might not have the correct resistance.
