We launched Kilwinning #446 on the weekend an when I tried to start the engine it just turned over and didn't fire.  We were out of the country for the last 3 summers so something has changed?  I can't get a spark from the plugs or directly from the coil.
I cleaned the distributer cap and replaced the condensor.  I am afraid of playing with the points.  The points look Ok to me?  I have 13+ voltage to the coil and points.
My guess is that the coil is defective?  Does that make any sense??  I am trying to get a mechanic but they all seem to be independedly wealthy and I am anxious to start sailing!
