When I first got the boat I installed a new temp sending unit. I gave the engine model number and off I went. There after It overheated matter what I replaced cleaned or checked.
Turns out is was a salt water temp not fresh. And the engine was retrofitted with a fresh water heat exchanger. Doh!!!

I have heard that engine coolant passages can get clogged or thermostat stuck. Did the over temp switch get changed when the hex was added? Did you check the switch for proper ops? IR point and shoot thermometers are cheap. I would shoot some temps to verify overtemp.
