[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 399612, member: 13599"] If going through the solenoid does not work, use a heavy wire or jumper cable and go from the battery positive terminal directly to the starter positive bolt. Don't touch anything else. It should jump up and try to start the motor. With the motor out of gear, of course. Then, you an focus on (1) your boat battery cables and (2) the solenoid. I am the furthest out of any kind electrical know-how, but, this is what I have done in the past to narrow down the gremlins. The most aggravating things in boat issues are the fuel delivery and electrical !!!!! good luck [/QUOTE]
