I agree with Mr. Worrall, but the other simple thing I would ask is, was the throttle in neutral?

These may be no brainers, but after working for the rental department for a local marina all summer, I have never seen or heard so many maintenance calls saying there boat wouldn't start. Only to listen to the customer screaming at me telling me I needed to come out to where they were and fix there boat, only to find out there kill switch was not hooked up and the boat not in neutral. But let me tell, does it ever shut someone up after finding out it was something so simply as the kill switch and the throttle not being in neutral. But I would check that again. Maybe also check your connection to your starting battery. Are your battery connections from the motor on the bottom of the terminal? Those connections should be the first ones on the battery, that's where your going to get your best connection.
