I had an old 20 HP Merc that looked like that.
It ran for 13 years, then the foot crapped out.
Come to find out, I got some mono behind the
prop and it ate the seal out, letting water in the
foot. Where I ran it, there were no fishermen, at
least none were supposed to be there.
I wanted more power, so sold it as is and bought
a 25 HP.
Them old Merc's will run forever if you mix gas right
and change plugs now and then.
