Just wondering if you can do a impeller change with the boat still in the water ? If so, anything you have or should do before?
Any thoughts would be helpful |

Tyler,
The RWP is above the water line so yes. |

Hi Peter - Thanks for the reply,...I know,...Knowing my luck i would sink the boat so I am just double checking. I don't have the luxury of a trailer or a lift.
Appreciate the help |

As long as you don't get the suction side hose below the water line in the bilge, you'll be fine.

yep, like Pete said, no issue at all. I had to change mine out in the water at SJRR a few years back. TIP: take some Dawn dish soap or something like that and lube it up before putting in the new one. Will make life easier.
