Haven't tried to charge the battery yet.....wanted it to be really dry before plugging it in.

It may be a lost cause, but it's worth a try. Just make sure it's completely dry before powering it up. I'm surprised the battery didn't melt (salt water shorting the battery). Did the battery seem to charge OK?

    Genius here was attaching fenders to the slip with his 'lithium
    ion battery powered 20V drill' and I kicked it over the side into
    12 feet of salt water.  It stayed on the bottom for 2 days but
    yesterday I was able to retrieve it, flushed it with fresh water,
    dried it and sprayed it later with WD-40 and left it to dry out in
    the garage.

    Is it a 'lost cause'?  Should I have just left it on the bottom?
