In my half hearted attempt to locate boat #2 (tinny) I noticed on Marketplace there weren't alot of newer tins available. There's a few a few model years old then they jump into the early 80's or older in abundance. This regardless of make.
And surprising enough...no Trackers. I find that odd...
Ebay has all sorts of adapters out there. I can vouch for the aftermarket Dewalt batteries - I have several and they work just fine in my Dewalt tools.

If you think between the rivets you've replaced and this coat that you have the leaking licked, I'd be tempted to skip a second coat. That's just me though...no experience one way or the other.
The Tahiti's and such, were purpose built boats that were designed to carry the weight and HP. Ala...Suck My Wake (Great Outdoors...John Candy).
There was a rush on jets in the 90's or so...seemed everyone and their brother made one in the 14-17' range. Typically these were small HP motors...
