Has anyone changed the impeller on this motor? It seems impossible!

What boat? Typically you remove surf locker inner engine cover and the impeller housing is super easy to access.

I figured an SE550 from your name, so pull inner surf locker and it will be a piece of cake for ya....

I have and it is a major chore. For a couple hours I thought it was impossible too.

The 550/575 has a more complex cooler mounted in front of the engine that blocks access to the housing. Access is extremely tight.

I worry that it would not be possible to do on the water in an emergency. Any boat movement would create chaos.
