running circulation pump w/o water
3 times last season i got junk in my water intake and got motor up to to buzzer temp.
I replaced the seawater pump, but didnt know what effect this would have on the circ pump..
How long can the circ pump run dry?

i think your fine, if your refering to the actual eng water pump on front of the engine there is no rubber parts inside to burn up like inside the raw water pump/impeller...

If the seals run dry for any length of time they will start leaking.
