Do you know what you need to do for the bike if you drop it to the stream?
Do you have needed tools to make it run after dropping?
I used sealskins and they kept my feet dry.

When the engine sucks up water, what i need to do is remove the sparkplugs on both sides, and start the engine so the compression forces all the water out of the cylinders. Then i reinstall the plugs and try starting it again?
Im not sure if i can remove the sparkplugs with the tools i have, probably i just remove the cap of the sparkplug (i see you have one on top of the boxer cylinder (r1200gsa) and one on the bothem) and probably il just can screw it out with the right wrench?
I have to try this before i leave
