Question 1985 evinrude 150xp starter wont engage and tilt trim does not work

Took my boat and this motor out today and it started and ran perfectly and everything worked. Got home started it again and flushed out the engine then when I killed the engine then ............nothing works now. The key will not turn over the engine and the tilt and trim have no power. What can cause this type of power failure. I do have power and ground at the engine but NOTHING!
HELP!!!

in the lower right of the picture is a red fuse holder, about the size of the little finger. the is a short 20 amp glass fuse in there, that is blown. if it keeps blowning, you have a short in the control box, or the wiring harness.
