Go to your local Radio Shack and tell them that you have some electronics
that got wet (electric motor and some circuit boards)- no sense in getting
laughed at. They have some chemical dryer that will take the moisture out.
Personally I just use wd-40. And spray the hell out of anything that looks
like it may have gotten wet. DO THAT TODAY

The worst part of the forgotten plug scenario is the aftermath in a few
months. The rust that shows up in starters, etc.

Oh ****, that was my darkest fear. The starter isn't
water proof, is it ? Now what? Anything I can do?
Or just wait it out and see what happens ?

If you accidentally launched without a drain plug and you pulled your

Dude, I never thought of that! Having survived
a plug-less launch, I'm a little less worked up
about the whole thing to where I'd feel confortable
with trying something like that. Problem for me is,
that with an I/O, its a little hard to get back in there
from the inside. I'm thinking that what is needed
is one of them 1/4 turn ball-valves with the long
handle on it. Plumb that up from the inside, and
fashon up a cable to open/close that sumbitch.
