Did you replace that relay and was that the issue of your boat not starting? Did you find what was the issue with your boat not even making a clicking sound when you turned the ignition on the start it?
Hello David u seem to be quite smart with electrical stuff. I have a volvo penta 3.0 gs and the starter just spins and dont send the small gear out to the flywheel. I jumped with a metal rod the + 12v to the Yellow/red on the starter and the same thing just spinns. The starter is bad right? not relay. The solenoid is fucked?

I had the same issue on my 3.0 gs; the starter has a plastic planetary gear ring that stripped, Delco part 10475632 maybe ~$8 in the US
