I know very little about hard drive Camcorder. What should I do to get
it working again?

1. Claim on insurance policy.
2. Bank check from insurance company.
3. Buy new camcorder.
4. Buy water proof case for camcorder.
4. Be more careful in future.

But otherwise seawater over powered kit is a near no-no for repair, next
down the no-no list after, even indirect, lightning struck kit
