Pump!

The seawater pump is installed!  I got my hands on it yesterday after 4 hours of Bahamian brokers, Customs and UPS agents.  Oh and $130 in fees.
Put it in this morning.
I decided to get the new pump because I had a consistent leak.  Could have ignored it but on examining the old pump I'm glad I didn't.  One aft seal was completely gone, exposing the bearings.  Losing the seawater pump in the gulf stream would not have been good.

We are good to go and getting anxious to get back on the...water.
