Default when to change raw water impeller

I guess I am wearing suspenders and a belt now regarding the impeller based
on my terrible experience last year due to a worn one.

Personally I like gfretwell's advice about using a pressure gauge.
You can still change impellers on your preferred schedule.
But even a new impeller can break a vane, and the gauge
will indicate a problem.
Make sense? I don't have a boat yet, so I don't know how practical
this is on various boats.
