So, thanks to the leading of Chris V and a friend of mine, I followed the overheat idea after coming to an almost dead end on the oil, checked on my water pump, and here is my impeller wheel. Something that I had not been aware of, is that this thing is a time change item. It seems most folks change this every two years, if not every year!! I’ve had my boat over 5 and have never done this before, as you can see by the picture. So, I’ll be ordering a water pump kit soon and hopefully this will fix my problem.
