Super Jet Won't start!

Ok, I took my Superjet to the lake and let my brother ride it around. Its been super reliable and I have not had any problems other than a couple small things. Anyway, my brother was done riding and we let it sit floating for about 10 minutes and I hopped on and tried hitting the starter button and nothing. It makes a buzzing...and I figured it was a bad connection. I got it home and charged the battery and made sure everything was tight and hit the start button and it makes a buzzing sound... I put my hand on the starter (assuming thats what it was) while pressing the start button and there was no vibration but still the buzzing. Then, I put my hand on the ebox (I guess thats what its called?) and its vibrating and buzzing. So, where do I even begin?

Vibrating/buzzing from the e-box is a bad cable connection. re-clean all connections and battery terminals, including the connections inside your electrical box.

Tried the jumper trick but didn't work. I took the ebox apart and felt the buzzing component and it was the junction block? It looks like it has a relay attached to it? So I tightened it and it stopped buzzing. Now it sounds like the starter is just spinning. I'm going to swap batteries and see if that helps. Volt meter read 12.5v on my battery.

The wire that goes from the battery to the junction block thing was loose. But, in the process of trying to start it and using my bilge pump until it would no longer work killed my Yuasa battery!
