Have 2006 225 Honda, was running across a bay the other day and engine shut down very quickly. Tried to crank engine, but would not turn over( starter engaged, but could not spin engine). got towed back to dock. Next day I removed engine cover and top air intake. Initially tried to manually turn engine clockwise with breakerbar/socket. would not spin. Was able to turn engine counter clock wise without any issue. Than I remove engine Kill switch and spun engine over with starter several turns, than lock up again.. turned it counter clockwise again. Need advice on possible problems. I believe its probably in valve train(lose valves) Just glad it is not totally lock up. Have never adjusted valves. Engine has over 500hrs,

 
There are people far more qualified than me, but I'd be looking at the timing belt.
This is assuming that it's in neutral and the lower unit is OK.
