My brother in law talked me into a 50/50 flip on a jet ski in Daytona, and now I'm out $2,300 with a broken engine sitting in my yard

Bought a used jet ski back in April for $2,300 because my brother in law swears you can flip them quick in Florida. The thing ran fine for two weekends, then locked up on the water by the Dunlawton bridge and I had to get towed back to the ramp. Seller blocked my number, mechanic quoted $1,800 to fix it, and my wife won't let me forget it. Now it's just sitting on a trailer killing my grass. Be honest with me, do I part it out or eat the loss and list it as a project?
