It only takes a few seconds of it grinding and the RPM's going up to ruin the clutch dogs on the gears. Go back to the engine and take teh shift cable loose from the engine, then move the shift rod on the engine forward and backwards and see if it moves freely and the lower unit engages. If it does then try and move the shifter and see if teh cable moves about an inch and a half or so at the back. If it is stiff then it needs a cable. If the shifter doesn't move freely, then your linkage is binding at the engine.
