Need help with starting problem on Westerbeke genset

Have an older Westerbeke 4.0BCG gas genset and been having a problem where when hit the starter where just get a click, but doesnt turn over, may take a dozen or more times for it to catch and turn over and start. Other times will just turn right over first try and start. Had the starter rebuilt and seemed a little better but then back to same old.

Any other thoughts?
 
Starter switch not passing enough current?

Slave solenoid (relay) not passing enough current or bad ground (won't stay closed)?
