Mate buying a couple of cylinders and dropping them in isn't going to fix what sounds like a massive job. You'll be up for piston and rings, cylinder re-lining or even two new cylinders, the heads are most likely hammered as the crank and connecting Rods would be, and you'd be lucky if that was the least damage. When things let go inside try tend to take down everything with them.
I'd suggest taking it into a shop for an inspection as I don't think you quite know what you're looking at, but unfortunately it is going to be expensive and probably out of your hands. However it is doable yourself if you dedicate time to learn! Good luck...

totally agree. just throwing a # out there but your looking at $600 at a minimum and you don't even know what caused the problem so that needs fixed, i'd budget more than that in this case. $600 best case scenario, $1300-$1600 worst case.

otherwise its time to scrap the ski but unfortunately with a serious engine problem, that discounts the price by at least a grand but more like $1500 IMO, your in florida, as of right now you own a $600 ski, if you strip and part it you have a $900 ski but it will take you probably 6 months or more to retract more than $600 out of this fella, but if your patient and work at it then you will squeeze $900-1000 out of it.

Maybe Minnetonka or his bro would have a drop in engine for him? They have been super fair with me on the engine and other bits I've ordered.

if you can do the work your self, toss in= a rebuilt engine.

If not, sell it.

Engine + labor = more than it's worth.
