I used to mess about in boats when I was younger.

If you drop it in salt water while it is on, it is most likely toasted.

If it was off, you might be able to save it:

1. Leave it in the water. If you dry it out now, the salt will be inside (salt=bad).

2. Get it into fresh water ASAP.

3. After a fresh water rinse, dry it as others have shown. (The rice trick was new to me.)

I have seen this work for portable radios. All of this was before cell phones... before the internet... my hair was longer and didn't have any grey in it.
