First thing you always do on a boat is to check and make sure you battery connections are tight . On my boat the beeper sounds when the kill switch is unplugged. when the motor is getting hot . And when the oil resevior is low.

And do not drive your boat when the beeper is going off. Fastest way to burn up your motor

Usually..a solid horn is an indication of something serious. Deliver your boat to a qualified mechanic immediately and have it diagnosed.

The beeping sound is one second on then delay then back on then delay.. So not continuous but recurring I guess.. And I stop running. The motor when the light turned off and trollered the motor back to the boat ramp.. So the bottom quadrant in the picture is fuel injector?

You are saying continuous, solid tone or continuous beep or other? Reason I am asking I just had owners tell me it was continuous and turn out to be 4 beeps about every 2 minuets. Try cleaning the cranking battery connections and remove the cables for 5 minuets, then reconnect.

Could be anything really. It is labeled a 'check engine' light. Must be scanned like the one on a car, I guess.

It's not a solid tone it was a continuous beeping.. Now when I turn the key it's not beeping but I get no crank what so ever so it doesn't turn over.. Thank you everyone for the replies though they have been very helpful.. The more input the better

Left is temp/overheat top is water in fuel right is low oil bottom is check engine. Light alone could mean a bunch but with check engine light and a beeping with no pauses shows throttle sensor failure according to the service manual.
