1981 Johnson 25 won't shift

Recently inherited from widowed aunt. Was used by everyone who visited to go crabbing for last 20 years. When I say I serviced it, I just checked L/U lubricant and since it was not looking bad, just topped up. Hit zert in end of shifter with grease and sprayed silicon on inside top of shift assembly. Then found it would not move much. Put vice-grips on underside of shifter and shaft and exerted enough pressure to realize that something is not moving. Did not remove phillips screw. Was used last year for crabbing. Thanks for your response.
