Hello,
My Grandfather bought an '83 Ski Nautique 2001 new. My Father inherited it, and then it came to me. It is pristine, and we have always taken care to no wear on it or damage it. The family has vehicle OCD, likely due to us being 3 generations of Naval Aviators. I do most work myself, but I don't like chasing electrical gremlins if I can avoid it. We have have to jiggle the throttle to get the starter to actually engage, I'm told likely due to a failing safety switch/starter cutout. This has been going on for a few seasons. Now, no amount of juggling will allow the ignition to engage the starter. I'm new to the area, and there is one Nautique dealer. When I dropped it off today, they told me this safety switch in the drivers throttle handle housing is "extremely hard to find", and they can't bypass it due to Coast Guard regulations. Anyone have advice? Thank You in advance.

Also adjust the morse cable so the tranny lever is well centered in neutral.
Also the pivots at the cable ends at the controller may be getting ***************ged out. They often saw through when you have a bunch over the house and/or the water is glass flat.
