Crusing around waiting for my wife I realized that I forgot to put in the plug (duhh!!!). Water filled up to the base of the engine block bofore I plugged the hole and turned on the bilge pump. Then I lost reverse first and shortly after forward. Any suggestions on trouble shooting process? I didn't have any issues until water was introduced in the bilge.

That boat must be a i/o, I can't see how getting water in the boat could affect the lower unit, drain the lower unit catch what comes out and see if there is metal in it, make sure your shift linkage is moving at the out drive.
