Two simple questions to start with. These may sound very stupid, but after working with people and renting boats all last summer, this problem sounds like one of two things.

1). Do you have the boat in neutral? The boat won't turn over if it's not in neutral.

2). Is your safety switch(also known as a kill switch to some) hooked up? This may sound stupid, but I can't tell you how many service calls I made due to this problem. If the motor is turning over, and it ran when you put it away, I bet this could be your problem!
