I just changed out the lower unit seals and impeller on my mariner 30 hp and I started it up and it had a lot of water coming out of the exhaust out of the prop. It was pissing as well and I was just wondering if it is supposed to come out of the exhaust like that? I couldn't remember how it was before. This is my first motor if you can't tell!

Alright good. I was watching some you-tube videos and most of the motors I saw did the same thing. I have just never messed with boat motors so I really don't know much about them. Only one way to learn! Thank You.

Its normal as most water passes via prop,after cooling exhaust channels and block/head.Pee hole is just for our piece of mind.
