i changed the starter, the starter selonoid, and slave selonoid. The only thing that is clicking when i turn the key is the slave selonoid, i checked the wires and the grounds and now i have no clue what to do.

Is there a circuit breaker/fuse anywhere near the starter?
The first thing I would check is whether there is power at the starter when you try to energize it.

you would have thought that the guy i paid 3 thousand dollars to, would have checked all this stuff, since this is undoubtly electrical. If any one ever has there boat rewired in MA, I can tell you who not to use!! not only did he wire my chartplotter wrong (which i fixed) but my starboard fuel tank sending unit does not work, and now this. For 3k it should be prestine and it should not have wires that go no where and electrical tape instead of appropriate bundling techniques. I won't drop the name here unless someone really wants me to. Becuase I want to, i just think trayder would not appreciate that. Oh, there is no breaker or fuse near there. From what i can figure is that there is a ground somewhere between the slave solonoid and the staring solenoid and starter.

Hey Chance- sounds like you need a "refund"- dont think i can help on your wiring problems but the choke problem might be wiring related as well. I took care of that on my boat- i just leave the choke disconnected . In a colder climate where you are , i would install a manual pull choke in my console. Hope you get your starter squared away-i know you gotta be frustrated-

do not hold back on my account.

I'd be pissed too, but I do think you will whip this soon. Trace all the wiring for the ingnition I have a sneaking suscpision(sp?) you have a mucked up ground somewhere.
