Hurricane submerged my outboard

Hi,

Need any help / advice on this subject. My boat, along with my 115HP
Merc outboard was completely submerged as a result of hurricane
Isabelle. It was underwater for about 18 hours, with battery
attached, in brackish water.

It's had time to dry now – should I just try to start it and see what
happens? Or would that likely risk further possible damage? Any
suggestions?

Thanks so much,
Brian Klug
