What were the symptoms when the booster pump went out? Did the Guardian system give a signal?

I have a good friend with a 2002 Nordic Heat running a 496 Mag HO...So far has about 800 hours on it and it still runs strong! No problems with motor or drive (Bravo XR). Regular maintenance and typically runs the boat around 4000 RPM. We are curious how long it will last!
