Last year I bought a boat trailer,14ft aluminum boat and a small motor.I put alot of money into the boat and trailer.Still had alot of work to do on it before it hit water.Then it snowed and put things on hold till it warmed up a little.Never got the chance to finish.Woke up one morning and my boat was gone.Stolen right off the trailer.The motor was in my basement and the trailer was to heavy to lift.Had it blocked in by cars.A freind of mine heard about a boat some guy wanted out of his yard.I went over to look at and took it home same day.15 ft glass with a 1973 115hp evinrude.Motor was rebuilt last season and the receipts were in the glove comp.Sold old trailer to get new stuff for my new boat.Ive never owned or driven a boat before.Ive never started one either. Well i got it home and charged the battery.Crancked and crancked but wouldnt fire.<br />found the safty plug that kills ignition and pluged it in.It started and i juiced it a couple times and shut it down.All without cooling.After reading and searching i found that this wasnt a good thing to do and was told i probably fried the waterpump.I bought some muffs and tried starting it with them on but im not sure what im supposed to be looking for eg:damaged parts? Could someone tell me what damage to look for?<br />Also the correct starting procedure?
