Dropped Kitty off to see what the overheating issue was caused by. Impeller had been changed last year but the water pump is unknown how old on this '98 motor.

Hopefully all goes well and she can be back out there before the fishing picks up.

They are catching mahi at the 9-mile now.  Steve and I saw some nice fish half-way from that to the beach.  I hope it gets fixed!

Impeller was bad and water pump was shot. All fixed now and waiting for a new prop. Originally a 12 pitch and the RPM was way too high, 14 pitch and 5500 rpm but the only aluminum prop available is a 15 pitch.

Gonna test her in lakes first.
