Your description has me 90% certain
you have a bad ground from the wiring harness to the engine.
On my 2gm this was a large ring terminal attached to or above
the stArter iirc. Your multimeter may fool you as you are
getting some conductivity. Inspect, Clean/de oxidize that
grounding point first, save yourself some time.
Note - since you are near the 12v
feed to the starter, be careful when you work...

Thanks for all the feedback.
I'll me digging out my multimeter and heading down to the boat
this
weekend. I now realize that I don't think the engine vent fan
turned on
when I turned the key (my lights on the panel are rather
intermittent
and my engine overheat buzzer has never worked, plus the tach
is
intermittent -- so good chance that the wiring harness is the
culprit).
I'll check the fuses on the engine and see if I can find the
ground wires.
No glow plug to deal with.
I've also been advised to check the "neutral kill swtich"
(stops you
from starting engine in gear) and the "oil pressure kill
switch" - not
sure where those are so I'll have to look at the engine
manual.
I'll see what I find and come back with more details if it's
not working
