43 Stingray (aeromarine)
43 challenger mono?? (aeromarine)
41 sprintcat or 36 sprintcat (aeromarine)
45 cyclone cat (aeromarine)

Would have a better idea if you have an overall length of each hull. They all look like aeromarine collection. No too certain about the 2nd pic mono

I hate to sound stupid but I'm a nitro guy, never had a gas boat. Also what kind of premix oil do l need ??
I do need 2 stroke Oil right ??? Anyone can chime In, all info will help.
 
Most likely carbs will have to be cleaned or replaced, with the spark plug, if it's a champion throw it away and get a ngk, champion plugs break apart and pieces fall into the motor and blow it up.
With the plug out of the motor spin the crank over by hand and feel what the bearings are like, if they feel gritty they will need to be replaced.
You don't really know how the last guy maintained these motors, I guess you have to assume the worst
