Yanmar 4BY2 with 1000 hours overheats when run above 2000 rpm - this is new, she cruises at 3500 rpm all day when running OK. Loses 1 gal water in 5 min at 3200 rpm. No visible leaks, smoke.

Commonly caused by clogged air filter. Also suspect buildup in exhaust mixing elbow. Smoke will build up carbon deposits over time and clog them. What color is the smoke? unburnt fuel will smoke and cause heat. Could be a fuel pump or dirty/bad injector not atomizing fuel correctly. If smoke is steam.... If there isn't proper flow or there is air in raw water system, the air hits heat exchanger and immediately turns to steam. Will result in overheating.

My 40 hp mer user.40elptefi dies if not connected to battery

It's electronic fuel injection so it needs power to run. Mercury is usually a yellow wire from stator that goes to a voltage regulator that charges battery when running. Good luck!!

I have a 1992 Thompson Marine Fisherman 240 350hp 5.7. It is discharging when revved up, goes to 12 volts idle.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to Boating category. The new Alternator or the Rectifier is faulty or incorrectly wired. When revved up it should be generating about 13.2, to 13.8 volts and supplying to the battery. The 12 volts at idle is probably your battery voltage. https://www.google.com/search?q=Alternator+discharging+battery+when+revved+up ..
