I'm pretty sure all of mine have had a crank case full of water at some point their lives.. some multiple times.. My 2010 went swimming in its first couple rides too. Crank was still in spec and running well at 260hrs.
Realistically, the filter should still be doing it's job, and I believe a quality oil holds up much better in this instance too! So as long as the water going in isn't full of abrasives, then as long as you get it out and get the engine back up to temp to get rid of the moisture and allow the oil to coat everything then everything should be fine..
Just have to watch the old hydraulic lock up if you get a heap in the combustion chamber.
