How to test a small DC motor?....out of a trolling motor on boat 1

I have an older trolling motor that has finally gave up. I was wondering if anyone can help me figure out what the problem is. How and where should I check? What results should I expect? Thanks for any help.

Thank you. If you are writing the truth, I guess, the trolling motor doctor knew it, not me.
