Turn the key, no guage movement, nothing. No loose wires off the back of the switch panel, the fuse above the key (ignition fuse) is fine. I tried swapping them out, still nothing. Ideas? Bypasses?

Re: No ignition

Lanyard, ignition switch, big fuse on the starter (55A or 90A). Check for 12v on the red/pur wire at the switch and go from there.

Sorry, but I just can't remember everyones boat.

Look on the starboard front of the engine, there by the slave solenoid is a circuit breaker that controls power going forward. Check it with a meter, even if it feels ok when you try to reset it. Many of them won't reset, but feel ok.
