Was tubing, stopped the boat, went to restart and heard only a warning tone.  No sign of any defects immediately prior.  Temp is consistently 160 degrees.  Oil was changed approx 7 hours ago, Mobil 1, fully synthetic added.  I'm competent to swap out components, simply out of practice diagnosing.  My boat is a 1997 in very good condition.  The only thing tried so far was the removal of the oil pressure sender lead.  The alarm stops, but then all activity ceases.  No alarm, no starting, no fun.  Any advice on where to begin would be greatly appreciated.

Will the engine turn over? 
Verify the shifter is in neutral
Check the safty lanyard, is it connected or switch turned on?
