Raw water pump impeller had "set" and had a chunk of a vane broken. The other issue was partially clogged risers where the water exits around the exhaust tubes. Upstream of impeller were clear.
I pulled both exhaust hoses off risers, cleaned passages and flushed.
Engine never overheated but I could smell the exhaust hoses getting hot and even more so, hot to the touch! Ouch. :x

I have flushers on my engines and really should get in a habit of using them! :roll:

All's well in Jamie Land. :wink:
