I would recommend you be there with him when he shows up. Don't bug him w/
a bunch of questions and talk as that will make the time and labor cost go
up. Rather, you want to verify that any parts he swaps are actually bad and
correct the problem.
Replacing a stator without verifying outputs are not there is a definite
sign he is guessing what the problem is.

No way to know.
Could be the kill switch not making contact.
Could be any one of a number of electrical parts.
Hopefully he does not get into part swaping but rather knows what he is
doing and has the equipment to verify parts are good or bad.
Will be at least one hour labor plus the trip cost. Minimum of $100
labor

Thanks Tony... as long as the repair is under $500 I am fine with it...
(of course that blows the repair budget for the boat for the year )
