Default Merc 4.3 possible water pump problem

I was coming back to the dock yesterday after a drive in a boat
parade. The Engine's alarm sounded and stopped dead. After a tow
back and about an hour cooling off time I pushed reset button and it
started right up. I drove it 300 yards and it died again with no luck
restarting after that. Any suggestions as to what it may be?
