I've been "helping" my brother restore his 70's Donzi Hornet. I kind of hang around and b.s. with him as I really know nothing about mechanics. Anyway, he and I got the engine started today (On land) and the water coming out of the thru hull exhaust pipes were hot as hell. Is this normal???

It'll be warm/hot...don't know what "hot as hell" is...other than your perspective. Be more concerned about what the water temp gauge and/or and IR thermometer says.
