One way to test is to undo the strainer cup, turn on the garden hose on the fake lake and see if water comes out or not.

Why yes, that is quite obvious now that you say it!

I'm nothing if not obvious

I only had to use one set of needle nose pliers to pull it out.

Yes. After all of the maintenance tasks, I washed the boat and wiped down all of the vinyl. Of course, the longer I work on the boat the more beer I drink. It's a win, win.

Gotta say the access you have to the impellar makes it way to easy. Just for fun you should try a 03 lsv--you'll need a case of beer

Well, thanks to sled and others, I took the boat out for its first run. For peace of mind, I let it idle on the trailer while in the water and I let it warm up to operating temp. It stayed around 150ish degrees and everything was great. So, I took it out and ran around for about a half hour and hung out for another half hour. It was windy as hell so I didn't want to stay out very long. Anyway, everything went great and I appreciate everyone's help.
