Taking Boat to shop after hitting sandbar

[Ron-O]

As I posted in the general forum, last weekend I hit a sandbar (well rocks and gravel bar) pretty hard and completely detroyed my prop. I'm pulling the boat out tomorrow to take it to the shop for a check (Insurance wants it checked). Here's my list of things for the guy to check. Am I missing anything to check on the Alpha 1?

Output shaft
Pressure test for seals
Impeller
Water pump
Shift cable
Bellows for rips


I figure the impeller will need changed no matter what. And I need to order a new aluminum prop and remove my stainless again.

Depending on how hard you hit, you want the gimbal ring and bellhousing checked for cracks, along with the steering. And if you hit wicked hard, check the transom for cracks too.
