I think it would pretty much overheat, and stall out. it might also act/sound/run funny as it approached overheat status. I do not think it will overheat, as I said, I had it apart, and with another pump sent water throught the system,, its circulating, just not making the tatle tale. the motor ran over 1/2 hour in the bucket at trolling speed with the prop turning and was cool to the touch everywhere. I dont think heat is a problem.I did not get to take the boat out easter sunday. The repairs ( fiberglassing ) went very well as expected, its all cured and painted ready for action.
There is still allot of ice everywhere around here, but there is a place or 2 I could go. Probably wont get the chance to get out now til the weekend. Maybe Ill get my casting deck finished sometime this week.
