These big mercs werent made for heavy trolling, best to have a small tiller for that kind of use, so it would make sense that it would load up and run like crud. not much knowledge on the transom repairs but im sure someone here will. If the water that came out was a small amount then i wouldnt be worried unless you see crack somewhere in the lower. A good start of course would be the water pump and seals and give the bearings and gears a good once over to make sure theyre not heavily pitted. Its in really good shape looks like, what took him so long to come around,lol!
