I have a 1999 bf50. Had the starter solenoid replaced 2 years ago and the starter worked perfectly since. That is until this year. Pulled the boat out, serviced everything, dropped the newly charged battery in and went to start the motor. It made a quiet "whirring" noise and then 4 audible clicks. After that when the starter button is pressed....nothing. No sound or click. Double checked battery by relacing with new and still nothing. Before I order a new starter...any ideas on anything else that could be causing this to happen.
