Hello everybody out there...I recently picked up my first boat and have worked on it all summer putting in a new floor and painting it...I purchased the boat from a guy who said he rebuilt the motor not too long ago...Although its hard to know forsure i can see he put new gaskets on and the motor looks pretty clean...anyway...after getting a brand new battery and new ignition swith i tried starting it but my throttle cables were not connected and i think touched the starter with something alse and heard a pop and some smoke and now the motor wont do anything...couold that be the starter solinoid....I have many other questions about the motor but i will save them untill i figure out this problem...any ideas??
 
the motor is off the transom and sitting on a stand...so no fuses under dash but i think there are some on the motor...where do i find info on serial numbers and stuff so i can identify the ex
act model??
