I was storing my older boat outside in the trailer for about 2 months. I went to get into it today and i realized i had not removed the plug and i had turned the batteries off. The water in the engine compartment was just above the bottom of the alternator. i looked at the oil and it is milky. This is a Mercuriser 350 2bbl. I have not tried to start the engine. What steps should I take to try and save the engine? Will the starter be ruined since it was submerged?
Thank you for your help! What a stupid and costly mistake!
