Article: Causes of Boat Starter Motor Failure

I own a 1986 Chris Craft 17' I/O drive. With a 1985, 181Cid 140hp Mercruiser I4 ....I don't have a lot of experience working on Marine Engines.

Today when I took the starter out (bytheway thatsmine W/theSelinoid ontop) and looked at the flywheel it looked all wet, at closer inspection it looked like the bottom 1/3 or so was sitting in water, I thought this awfully peculiar, am I wrong ?

I hope someone can help me. I left the lights on and ran the battery down. I got a new battery and put it in the boat and when I went to start it there was nothing. it didn't even click. the light and horn work but nothing at the key. can anyone help?
