Seadoo saga

I'm feeling pretty foolish today after suffering the latest sage on my Seadoo project. After having the jet pump rebuilt, carb gone through, new starter, plugs, fuel selector, all the bellows seals, etc. I couldn't get the thing to run without cutting out at a higher throttle. Before resigning to a new carb I checked compression - 90 lbs per cylinder. Well, summer is over anyway so I decided to pull the engine and have it sent off for a rebuild. Much to my chagrin, some oil leaked into the bottom of the hull from one of the disconnected hoses and then I see an exterior drip coming from an apparent crack in the hull near the front of the water intake grill. Not sure if I should still put any more work (and money) into this or just scrap it. Any advice out there fellas?

I see the blue oil so what oil are you using?

Double check compression with a different gauge.

You need to find the actual crack in the hull to determine if it is a simple fix or major.
