If someone cranked on it without it starting, it may have gotten flooded via the exhaust. Usually on a diesel that is a death sentence, but you might get lucky if you pull the glowplugs or injectors and squirt Marvel Mystery Oil in there. Best case all that happened is a little water caused the rings to rust onto the cylinder walls. Worst case is bent/broken rods and other internal mayhem.

It ran a year ago and turned over but didn't start 6 months ago. Last week it wouldn't even turned over. Couldn't turn it via flywheel either but I didn't spend much time on it. It still has oil in it. My gut says that someone that knows what they are doing can get it going. That said, it is really undersized for the boat. 15 knots of headwind and you are not making much progress at all. So I would recommend planning to replace it.
