The electrical ignition system overall is sensitive to salt air, sea spray, humidity, and corrosion. Marine ignition switches are keyed to engage a lock built into the switch as a safety precaution. Boat ignition switches are the access point to the ignition system. This voltage causes a spark to arc across the spark plug gap, thereby igniting the fuel in the cylinder.

The purpose of any ignition system is to generate high voltage output precisely when it is needed. Boats have a starter system that is comprised of several electrical components including the ignition system, the battery, a starter switch, an electric starter motor, and the solenoid. A marine ignition switch creates a spark in the engine cylinder which turns the engine over. If your boat is gas-powered, it requires a starter system to ignite its internal combustion engine.
