Nissan 40hp won't crank and power trim not working

[fisher_girl]

We put away the boat last winter the correct way and everything. When we went to take it out this year, we put in a fully charged battery, hooked up all the wiring and when we went to start the motor, there was absolutely nothing. Not a click noise, nothing. Also, the power trim won't work. After changing wires around thinking a couple might of been on the wrong post, we got the bilge pump and fish finder to work but nothing else. What can be wrong? Can anyone help?

The boat wiring is faulty. You might even have the battery installed backwards (+ instead of -). Double-check all battery connections and any main battery switch. Don't guess. Connecting backwards, for example, can blow up a lot of components.
