Take the lower unit off, and get it to your dealer. It's not that hard to do. Take it in during the winter, and avoid the rush in the spring. You'll sleep better once you have resolved, too.

Make sure it's in neutral, remove the bolts, and it should come right off. Not sure on the Yammy, but there may be a bolt under the trim tab, too. It helps to trim the motor up some, so as not to drop the unit unexpectedly.

Have the dealer inspect it, and repair or replace as required. If the can repair it, have them put in a new impellor, too.
