All fixed. Sucked sand into the seawater pump and grenade it and motor got hot. Caught it and shut it off in time. Got reversion while drifting and looking at problem and got water in cylinders unbeknownst to me. Fried starter because it was hydrolocked. Pulled plugs, drained water, sprayed wd-40 in cylinders, installed new starter and seawater pump. Runs like a champ. No water in oil, guess my rings are good! Holds at 140 degrees at the dock and 70 psi oil pressure. Changing oil anyway in the am and all is good. Have enough cuts and bruises on my hands and arms it looks like I was attacked by a pack of wild cats.
