    Sea Ray 182 bowrider: new battery & solenoid... still won't start (or click!)

    So I've got a 2003 Sea Ray 182 bowrider less than 300 hours on the Mercruiser engine. Last season I occasionally got "no click" when turning the ignition key, but eventually it would click, start, turn over and run just fine. I put a new battery in it last year. So first thing I did this...

    My new baby!

    We're in Memphis now. So if we just want to get in the water without driving far, Horseshoe Lake (which used to be connected to the Miss. River decades ago) is very close by.

    I'm looking to buy a 182 SRX (2003) this weekend, looks like it's been very well kept, 220 hours on the Mercruiser 4.3. Any questions especially for this particular boat that I should ask other than the usual, or things I should look for? Owner did say that the speedometer recently stopped...
