Thanks for all your thoughts.  Further information:

Shorting the starter results in starter spinning without engaging flywheel.
Solenoid *thunk* without starter turning began after my son attempted
starting with the 50 amp momentary setting on my 10 amp battery charger.  Is
there a fuse or other component likely to have been affected by this event?

TIA again.

Greg
