1) Replace sterndrive pump impeller.
2) Replace sterndrive bellows.
3) Replace anodes.
4) Sand, prime and paint some areas of corrosion down near the skeg.
Sterndrive is Volvo Penta DPS-B 2.32 and is on the boat.
Quote is $800. I don't have a real good feel for this so any experienced opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Lets see. I have a 09 Volvo 8.1 liter, 375 HP, replaced anodes fall 19, cost online for parts $50.00 very easy to install yourself to save labor but probably 1 hour labor and if marina purchases parts they will mark up. Replaced impeller spring of 19, parts and labor $193.08. my outdrive has 2 bellows, one for exhaust and one for universal joint. Replaced u-joint bellows in 2017, parts $62.35, will charge at least an hour of labor for at least $120 per hour (depends on marina labor rate) Double it if you are replacing both bellows. I also had outdrive repair completed fall of 19 after scraping some rocks, scrapes were filed, sanded, painted. Prop blade filed, that was $322.00. So I would say $800.00 is in the ball park. But be sure whoever is doing work is reputable and you trust them.
