Re: Water damage... causesActually when I was working on boats I saw several that were totally sunk and then lifted. The electronics were fine after appropriate drying out. One boat was deemed a total loss by the insurance company, but a diver was able to recover the electronics and loose gear, all of which ended up working fine. This was actually in a salt water environment, so the conductivity was high.So I would say in a practical sense, while oxygen is soluble in water, something that is completely submerged is probably not exposed to enough oxygen for serious corrision. The deeper the water, the less oxygen exposure there would be.
