i really did it this time , i was in a big hurry to get boat out of water last time i took it out and i trusted someone to do what they said they were about taking the drain plug out of back of my boat. well needless to say they didnt . three weeks later i go back to my lake house look in my boat and my gas tank is floating!!!!!!!!!!!!!my engine is about half way sitting in water and i am steaming mad. i immediately pull drain plug let all water drain out of my boat. as soon as it all drained out, i pulled oil drain plug to see if water got in the motor . of course it did !!! anyways i put new oil in the motor to try to keep my rod bearings from rusting up . unfortantly i couldnt check for hydrolock because my starter went out. i have to get a new one. right now i am looking for any suggestions on what to do . i am a father of two little grls and dont have alot of money to spend on a new engine i jus want to be able to take them out on the lake. also when i took the oil filter of after being submereged it didnt have water in it just oil . i dont no if water only got into oil pan or through whole motor . if anyone nows any info please help
