The shift bushing under the front of the power head may be locked up. Can you move the shifter?
It does not move the slide, this is why I assume it is a stretched or broken cable? I did try putting it in gear by hand and it will go in that way (with engine off) and prop does not spin when in gear with engine off.Pull the cover and look at the shift slide. Make sure the cable is moving the slide.
