Anything with marine attached to the front will cost 5 times the normal price than if you went somewhere else.
There are loads on ebay at a reasonable price.
depends where the gouge is, can you describe which surface i.e. the surface that the blades contact or the side surfaces. Usually a flatten with sand paper will do it.

From what he describes, more like some shite got in, and the nick was maybe caused by a failing blade?



hi nick...the sides of the impeller casing are good, the mark is on the bottom of the casing, you can just about feel it with your fingernail, iam sure it will clean up with a fine grade wet and dry or simular....just found one on ebay.£10 +free delivery from PACER MARINE


Should be alright, clean it up, you have to think is the impeller blade going to get destroyed by the mark, that is maybe what happened to the original impeller.


Maybe, although its rubber so unlikely.

Ah yes, good point. For some reason I thought it was ally.
