Look for a blown fuse under the cowl down by the starter solenoid; probably a 25 or 30 amp fuse. Good luck

If the main fuse is good it is the starter solenoid. Based on you description of have instrument power and trim/tilt I think you will find your issue there.

Check the "start in gear lockout" switch in the control. Jostle the control back and forth while attempting start.
You might find a spot where the switch will work.

When you turn the key to start, there should be +12v on the yellow/red wire at a small terminal of the starter solenoid. The "start in gear lockout" switch prevents this voltage if the control is in gear.

If your fuse is blown, you will not have the gauge activity you describe.
