Francois gave you some good things to look at.  My first shot would be a
dirty start button/switch.  I'd try jumping across the back of the switch.

As for starters, boat on my pier had a Volvo diesel.  Starter went bad.
Volvo starter was north of $700.  Lo and behold, it uses the same starter
as a Mitsubishi Lancer which can be bought for less than $100.

As it turned about, it wasn't the starter.  I ended up with the old starter
if anybody out there has a Volvo (or a Lancer) and needs a spare.  It's
been tested.
