Pulled my boat out Monday and was getting it winterized by a local marina here in Michigan. They called me earlier saying that they can not winterize it because the sea water pump is bad and that the cost to replace it would be $700.00.
Last two times I used the boat I did notice that it was going bad, because when I idled the boat for more than 20 minutes the temperature would go up and set the alarm but never while at speed. Probably because water was being rushed thru the inlet at speed.
I think it's either the impeller or the whole pump that is bad. If I was to replace the whole pump, does anyone know where I can get one decently priced?

I know of other ways to winterize the boat so I am not worried about that, but would like to still fix it so I am good to go in the spring. View attachment 61463
