AQ125B Not starting

Acquired this boat recently. It will not start. Previous owner said it needed a starter. Replaced a breaker and got power, but still just a click or two when the key was turned. Replaced starter and the same thing. Sometimes power circuit needs to wait a bit before trying again for the click. Brand new battery for troubleshooting but I'm still thinking this may be the cause.
 
Most likely a lousy connection somewhere... Check volts AT THE BATTERY POSTS when cranking... should be over 10.5 V if not, battery issue ( lo charge or shot)

Thank you for the input. I just tried going direct to the starter from the battery and it sounds right up. There has to be a bad connection somewhere. Of course as everything spins up a belt snapped.
