IMO the pick of boats in that size is the Haines Signature 575F.

I would avoid the Seafarer it is a back breaker.

4.2m dory simple and effective.

Looks like corrsion from the inside. If it is impact damage it can be welded and fixed.

If it is corrsion you will need to replace the lower unit.

A second hand lower unit will not cost much probably around $500 with new gearbox oil and impeller.
