Joel, I had a similar problem a couple of years ago and it turned out
to be the exhaust hose. In the rear of a C&C 36 they routed the hose
up and over the knee for the backstay and over the years the bend was
such that the inner hose had collapsed. It took a while to find
this.
Just a thought,

Joel,
Wouldn't I see leakage(water) at the clamp? Hoses are dry. Are you
thinking its sucking in air?

Jim,
You might check the exhaust hose carefully. A small break around the
clamp might give the same symptoms, and I bet it is a cheaper repair
(if you can crawl in there).

Follow up to my loud hissing sounding exhaust. Raw water system good,

Looked inside of mixing elbow, no blockage(aided by flexible fiber
optic scope). I didn't want to run the engine with exhaust hose off of
the elbow. figured it would make a sooty kind of mess in the engine
compartment. So I've decided the lift muffler must be the culprit.
Outside jacket showing some spots that look like its rusting thru from
the inside out. Perhaps inside baffling is deteriorating and causing
blockage? In any event looks like a potential fill the boat with water
issue. As I stated earlier the engine runs ok, no overheat condition,
didn't really notice lack of power.
Any other thoughts? Looks like Defender has some good prices on
veralift units. They also have a Vetus model twice the price looks like
its a composite material.
Listers any experience with either?
Thanks as always.
