Carl; would it be possible for you to post a picture of your magneto?
If your coil laminates are about 7/16 high and just a bit more than 7/16 wide….you are in luck because you can retrofit a pair of the common OMC coils. Although some laminates are quite a bit heftier than that….so it would help with a picture.
Points can most often be cleaned and polished and re-used. A variety Condensers can be made to work, spark plug wires can be purchased at a lawn mower shop or auto supply store. Copper core wire.
Member Tubs has a great video showing the OMC conversion. If he sees this I bet he will post a link to it.

I believe you have this Wico magneto. If that is the case, these pictures are of the modification Seakaye has described above. Here is a video link of the modification on a 7.5 hp. Mercury Phelon magneto . https://youtu.be/OxPHe8EPe1Q?si=yu99T33CLZ52zeC5
A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
