it depends on how much electrolytes the water had. once its dry you should be good to go. but some water have high quantity of sodium which can short out a board because when the water dries the sodium crystals can bridge the circuits and cause a short. 

The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.

Let it dry out. Then it won't be a problem.
