I ran my boat for about 2 hours solid on friday, then when pulling up a skier, it stalled and died. After that, it wouldnt start. I have had problems with this boat since day one. I have replaced the battery (it now has two good ones), I have checked the fuel water separater filter and it is good. I have checked the connections, they are good. The boat has done this before, but it has always started back up when I let it sit for a while. This time I am not getting anything. It only SLIGHTly clicks when I turn the key. This is a 5.7 Mercercruiser I/O. Any ideas?

Check your battery connections. If there are bolt on replacement ends on the cables, inspect for corrosion. Check the block ground. If all OK, then check the wiring on the starter motor. If OK, remove the starter motor & replace. Any wire in need of replair should be soldered & shrink rapped.

I had the same problem once and it was the starter solenoid.

It might be the ignition box.
