In trying to gather information about my first boat purchase I've hit a wall regarding the water pump impeller. I've read that it requires replacement every two years on a Merc Alpha One outdrive and that with service it can cost around $500. In that same post I read that the water pump impeller requires replacement every year on the Volvo Penta, but that the cost is around $150.
The issue I'm having is that via searching on Google impellers don't seem to cost nearly that much. Is it the service that drives those numbers up? If I find the thread again I'll link back to it, but can anyone verify that this is accurate?
