If you really want to be sure the water is out of anything electric, buy some dry white rice, put it in a rubbermaid container, and drop your motor in for a day or so. The rice will suck 100% of the water out of it.
I use it on electronics all the time, it's very very effective.

I second that! I have used rice to dry stuff as well too! Very effective indeed.
