Hi all:
My 1984 Catalina 30 was working perfectly and one day later wouldn't start. I turn the key, press the start button and nothing, not even a ticking over. I traced wires and everything looked ok, I even hired a marine electrician to come down and check all the wiring, batteries etc and he said everything looked good. He suggested that the issue might be the starter/solanoid, and that it may be time to replace. Is there any way to check this, because I was hoping the marine electrician would have done this.... I'm also worried that the alternator might be the issue. Sorry for the vague thread but hopefully someone has some advice.
Thanks.
