"A couple of things could have

"A couple of things could have happened. You could have a piece of plastic or seaweed blocking the water intake in the outdrive (that happens quite often). Also, the raw water pump impeller could be faulty. If noe of the above is the problem, then you have to start looking at the thermostat, thermostat housing, exhaust manifold, circulating pump, etc."
