Seawater pump is located on the front of the engine, driven by the crankshaft. 4 screws hold the cover on. Very easy to change...takes about 20-30 minutes.
 
You may want to see this page, and look this up by engine model number.

Depending on the V/P package that Azure used, you may have a belt driven sea water pump, or..... it may be this style, in which the entire pump body is removed to access the impeller.
It's still pretty easy to do.

(this is an examply only)

BTW, if you lay up for the winter, now is not the time to be installing a new impeller.
I'd recommend waiting until Spring time, when you will begin using the boat.
(no sense in allowing an impeller to sit against the cam, while not being used.)
