No as it not SAEJ11 certified. A marine starter is no different from the auto except it has a internal flash shield to prevent internal arcing from igniting any fuel vapors in bilge area and a good coat of paint.

Starter 2.4 Volvo 1986 bayliner part number?

Do not put a car starter in your boat, boat starters and alternators cost more because they are sealed to keep any electrical sparks from blowing up your boat if there are any gas fumes in the engine bay. The cheapest way to go is to take it to a rebuilder and have yours rebuilt. You will be taking a big risk if you use an automotive starter and it is also illegal by coast guard guidelines.
