Default 1978 v20 cuddy Mercruiser 470.... Now what? aaah

Hi from Scott here in beautiful Southern California. I need some inspiration from you alls boats that are actually running! So far this year I've had to do coupler job which led to stringer box under engine repair, ignition / carb job, trailer bearings... Then made it out for some great fish surf dive trips here in Santa Barbara. Then in November overheat! Research , eBay auctions, new circulating pump, shaft sleeves, seals, gaskets, 4" heat exchanger, bad manifold riser need new one of them too, more eBay, Paint bildge while engine is on the floor of the boat shop for the last 3 months .... Ok everythings there been Savin money up for boat shop bill got it all together this week .... Mechanic gets it back in the boat turns the key all good until .... Oh no oil drip drip drip. Bad rear oil seals. 30 dollar part only you have to take engine out turn it over to get to it!!!

Aghh I can't hardly remember her running good. Someone tell me it's all worth it because our boats are so badass! Pulleaze!!!
