[Rhodes22-list] Got launched, but...

[Lowe, Rob]

Well, got my boat in the water OK, but, then, the motor refused to start.  I've got the Yamaha 9.9 with electric start.  Hit the start button, and the solenoid and starter motor would kick in as they should.  But then it would stop.  It felt like the motor was in gear, which should prevent it from trying to start at all.  I'm guessing it's the mechanism that prevents the motor from starting when it's in gear.  I never really felt like I got the motor in neutral.  Anyone dealt with this before?  Thanks - rob
