Thanks! I'm almost sure it is the starter. It seems diagnostics is more art than science. I will have the new starter in tonight and then the answer will be clear.
I almost never go out without 2 working motors. My ocean boat has twin 115 HP Mercs on it. Everyone says: "wow that must go fast." I don't have them there for speed at all. The props are pitched so either engine will push the boat at 25 to 30 MPH and mid range RPM's, ie the boat only needs one of them for normal operation. They are redundant so I don't have to "walk" home from the ocean.
How does this Saturday afternoon look for troubleshooting your boat?
