So the rule is... Show a "picture or it didn't happen". Maybe if Nick had not taken a picture he could wake up and it would have all been a dream.

Changing the oil several times is definitely a must. I even ran a quart of diesel with my oil on a Honda foreman I submerged. Anything you can do to flush the sand out. Change the oil as many times as you can afford and you will have done about all you can. There are additives you can use (instead of diesel). Maybe some of the mechanics on the forum have some tricks.
Even clean creek water has sand in it. That sand will collect in the worse places. It likes to get up around the rings and score the cylinders.
I didn't (don't) mean to scare you. We've all done it, and you said you didn't restart it until you cleaned it out.
I don't advocate taking it to the dealer for the engine, but if he can clean and grease all the electrical connections for a small fee, that would be great. I have always hated trying to unplug automotive type electrical plugs.

For an inexpensive home remedy:
New spark plugs ( @Tflynn suggested that)
Get a can of spray electronic cleaner and some dielectric grease.
Find and unplug every electrical plug on the pioneer. (ONE AT A TIME)
Spray it with cleaner and use a generous amount of grease.
Pick up a product that is designed to mix with the water and burn. Methanol works best but makes O2 sensors freak out.
A small crack in the spark plug can be near impossible to see, but will do weird things.
Cleaning and greasing the connections will get any water and corrosion out, as well as protect against water next time you get in to deep.
A little water might still exist in the fuel filter or fuel lines.
