Seals yes, you can get a kit with the bearings for $40. That's up to your discretion though. I know you are trying to be on a budget, if you don't just make sure you inspect the bearings.
Well that not really new..the seals are probably no better. Its not hard to rebuild a bearing housing, hell you dont even need to take off the bearings (if they are in good shape). All you have to do is take off the coupling and three bolts later the housing comes off to replace the seals.
Budget yourself.
I stopped buying beer and smokes, you can spend a lot of unnecessary money on food, and I sold all my other toys just to afford it(I could not afford having multiple machines and I decided to stick with skiing). While currently going to school for engineering. I'm going to wait...
If you want to keep riding that's what I'd do. But you might have to pull the engine anyways to get the housing to completely seal around it. I installed a float switch to my bilge pump, that's another option i'd do anyways if you leave it parked in the water. Works great for me.
I landed dead on my head doing a back flip about year ago. Pretty scary, completely folded my head to my chest with a huge poping noise. I just hope this does not come back to haunt me. Especially since I am still young and just starting my career in the Army soon. Even as young as me...
