Force out board no start, no spark?

Question

its a 125hp i got the boat and i got it as a repairable boat, lots of people have looked at it including the marina, and no one could get it to even crank, well i bought the boat and found that problem it was a bad rectifier. i have now found it has no spark, i have always owned and worked on other peoples boats but they were all i/o. i am a diesel and auto mechanic so the in board's were easy for me to work on, but i am new to the outboards. does the stator then tell the trigger box to tell the coils to fire i am unsure any one with knowledge of these please help. thanks by the way it does have new plugs and the boat only has 60 hours on it and its a 86 bayliner capri 1800
