There isn't a circuit breaker on the starter motor circuit itself . Still sounds like a bad connection somewhere , corrosion on a terminal maybe . The starter motor draws massive amps from the battery , the battery voltage will drop significantly while the starter is turning over .

Try wiggling the solenoid connections e.g., the thick leads on it . You may have to loosen the nuts a bit to wiggle the leads .
