    Can I change my Impeller in the water?

    I Need to change the impeller on my 1998 Mercury 150 2.5L 2-stroke saltwater series motor. The question is can I do this with the boat in the water? It is on my 5-ton work barge and Cant really take it out. I can tie it stern to dock and lift the lower unit above the dock. Is this possible?
