I have some money and can put it into the boat if need be but I don’t have the cash to just toss it into the water. Not sue if I make sense or not. Just excited that the motor runs and maybe the boat will float.

The thing is it never came with one origanally, so why add one in? It wasn't until the late 90's that I seen them start getting used in boats. It has no real benefits other than maybe stopping any oil residue from going through the flame arrester, but on the other hand it would just go through the intake instead. A PCV valve is an emissions control device, so boats weren't required to use them.
