What did you tell the marina that you didn't tell us? Wonder how they came
to that conclusion. Did you check timing and/or dwell after you replaced the
points?

Should be a wire(wires) hanging loose near the switch. Get the engine
running before you connect up the switch, since disconnecting it covered
up
another problem that you will need to troubleshoot.

I replaced plugs, points and everything. Had good spark and everything,
but still no starting. I called up a marina and they said that from
what i told them it is definately the starter. SO .... i guess i have
to spend a couple houndred on that now,, lol
