I like the ideas mentioned of running the boat out of the water on muffs and seeing if you're getting water out of the exhaust. You can also check the temperature of the hoses that inject water into the exhaust elbows vs. the engine side hoses to get some idea if the raw water is flowing.
As far as checking water temp that goes into the elbows/manifolds, would you do that by touch of actual temp gauge?
