Don't overestimate the damage due to water. Last year we had a pipe break in our Robotics room over a weekend. All the doors and windows were closed so the result was basically a rainstorm inside the class room, which included the 2004 robot, 20 computers, and all our tools and supplies. After the initial heart attack upon seeing the damage we let everything dry out for a week or so. Everything ended up covered in rust, but everything ran fine. As long as the elecronics aren't running when they are wet things should be fine.
