Is My Starter Going Bad? 2000 5.0 M/C 0m012817

Hi Guys,,,,,,,, So This would happen occasionally, On the first start of the day, when starting its cranks smooth, but then makes a couple of loud sounds, not " clanking" like hydrolocking just a couple of annoying LOUD sounds. Now the last few days... Its doing it every FIRST start of the day. After that, you can start it a hundred times with no noise. 1500 hrs on engine and I use the boat EVERY day so its not sitting days between use.
Any thoughts, or test?

Thanks!
Rick
