Ok guys, brand new batterys. Boat was running fine last saturday. Sunday I went to start it, and both motors fired fine. I turned the starboard off to tilt up and clean my p hole. Put it back down and it turns over slowly once, and then clicks (solenoid).
I'm thinking there's a loose ground somewhere, and will start there, but any advice would be appreciated!!
Thanks,
Bob

if grounds are good then I would check continuity on the solenoid , it may of went just by twist of fate at this time ? but I'm betting a loose wire somewhere or fuse

Welp, I'm an idiot. I forgot to wire brush my connections this year. Cleaned em up good and she fired right up.
D'oh!

Glad it was an easy fix now instead of finding the problem at the Hot Dog.

Nice fix !
Spray the connections with CRC 226 or similar to prevent corrosion.

Been a very big fan of corrosion pro you can get at Lewes Harbor Marina you can spray in directly on energized equipment and in electric motors seems to hold up very well.
