Well, the impellor was the issue with pumping water. It was badly chewed up and took about an hour to clear small bits of rubber. Don't know whether I should take off the lower hose to the heat exchanger to flush the hole or not. That's a larger level of effort that replacing the impellor.An assembly question; does anyone put a lubricant on the plate or just the paper gasket?RonWild CheriC&C 30-1STL

My Sherwood is not the newer model, so it has a flat plate in front from which to change the impeller unlike the newer model in the manual. It wasn't that hard; easy to get at, just behind the companionway stairs.
