2005 Seadoo Engine Compartment Took On Water, What should I do ?

Hello,
I have a 2005 Seadoo RXT Supercharged jet sky that took on water in the engine compartment and went dead.
I took it home and drained the water from the hull and removed plugs and turned engine over to remove water from motor.
While doing so I think the silanoid went out ? I can’t get it to do nothing now when I press the start button but I can get it to turn over bipassing the silanoid.
Is there any Info. on what I can do ?
A mechanice said it needs to be took down and repaired because if water gets in the supercharger it could build pressure and warp rods. Is this true ? What should be done ?
Any help greatly apprecaiated.

    What your mechanic said is true. Your engine will most likely require a rebuild.

    You should have let your engine sit for a few days out in the open so the water can evaporate.

    Get a new battery (unless it wasn’t affected), let the motor dry out on it’s own for a couple of days to a week. Change the engine oil, and check all electrical systems. Then maybe try and turn it over. Other than that, i’d advise you to take it to your mechanic.
    You might have done more harm than good to your engine by turning it over as soon as the hull was drained.
