.................... but that was your power source :eek:.

But that aside, I'd seal up the air inlet, electrical connections and anything else that could be affected by water and carefully start at the top and work downwards with a minimum amount of water.

Do this on a hot sunny day to dry it as quickly as possible along with (if not too big) finally running the engine in a clean garbage can of water to completely dry it.

Dry poop is easy to vacuum out. Once it gets wet it turns into a dirty sticky mess. For the pee soap and water. I have used a wet/dry shop vacuum cleaner for that and it is just a matter of hosing the insides out later.
