Hey sorry im posting this in 3 places

I just bought a seadoo a 95 XP
I left it in the water for the week at my cottage when i went back it was Submerged under water i had to pull the seat off and take the cover off to empty the water with a bucket is this something Major i should be Worried about?
 
Yes, it somthing to worry about.. I would get it fired up as quickly as possible so as not to lead to rust and corrosion and possible engine seizure. Remove the spark plugs and leave the caps on the grounding post. Turn the engine over to remove the water from the cylinders. Spray a little wd-40 in the cylinders to help displace the water. Hit the starter for a few seconds at a time letting it cool down abit while trying to get the water out. When it seems like all the water is out insert the spark plugs and get it started. Use the choke or a little fuel and injector oil as a premix to help fire it up. Don't use starting fluid. If it doesn't fire up repeat the procedure. Pull the spark plugs, hit the starter, insert spark plugs get it to fire up. Time is of the essence. the longer it takes to get it fired up the more chance of damage to the internal engine components.
Do you have a seadoo shop manual? If not here’s an idea for you. You could join as a "premium member". As a premium member you can down load a authentic seadoo manual from the seadoo manual library. In the library is a variety of manuals for almost all years and models. You can view as many as you like on line as a PDF file, or download it and print it for your personal and private use. There are operator manuals and repair manuals for you to do your own repairs on your seadoo. The repair manuals have everything from troubleshooting, repair procedures to winterizing. It contains wire diagrams torque specs and pictures for disassemble and assemble instructions. In the spec sheets it tells everything needed to maintain oil changes, spark plug gaps, carburetor rebuilds and impeller wear ring tolerances. Click on the "Seadoo Manuals" link at the top of the page for more details. If you need any help or get in a jam, we are always here to answer your questions too. Premium members get priority when it comes to getting quick detailed answers.

Well i will be able to get it running tomorrow should I maybe go run it for a few hours or something? Like i think it should be okay i mean seadoos are meant to be driven in and thru water i know there not a submarine but there more durable then a car engine.
 
If you have any water in your, engine chances are it won't start and will be rusting as it sits there. Use my proceedure to get it started if it can.

If it had as much water in it as you said, and its in the engine ...I wish you luck...if it starts, run it to get all the water out if it.
Keep us posted.
