Chances are the alarm your hearing could be an over-temp condition, possible thermostat issue. It can still have the appearance of a good P-stream which would run ok at lower rpm, but the engine would overheat as soon as higher rpms were throttled up. This has happened with mine; the T-stat was stuck in a partially open position and would not operate when tested in a pan of hot water. With that said also need to do an inspection of impeller condition. Have you ever had the impeller changed?

Thermostat on right side stuck open
vs new T-stat
Next, I agree with Curt about fiberglass work. Its not that hard to do but can be a messy task. Matching color Gelcoat is a different animal and still can be done. I know guys over the years that did their own.
