What is the price of changing the seals on a bearing housing unit on a 2006 Sport Boat SX230? I appreciate your help. Thank you.

Price as in parts? or as in, Done by someone else? https://www.partzilla.com/ is a good place for parts.
It's a bit of work, having to move the engine a tad, then the bolts are not super accessible, and you need a press to put it all back together again.
Might be as little as $200 or even less if you reuse as much as you can and do it yourself, or might be $3K if you pay someone with white gloves to do it. Where are you located?

If the seals are bad the housing probably needs to be replaced as a unit and I have done many posts about not pumping in grease as it destroys the housing and seals etc do a search for adding gear lube to your intermediate bearing . you will need to pull the pump and undo the motor mounts to move the engine forward to change the housing and then re mount the engine and pump If you add gear lube to the bearing housing you will probably never need to do anything to the intermediate bearing .

Here’s a link how I changed mine, it really wasn’t that hard but a press is needed.
