Dry it out. Check your oil.

What is buzzing?

See if the motor will spin with your hands.. If it don't budge then the motor may have water in it

it'd be a good idea to check your oil height. is your starter gear kicking out? also try to turn the motor over by hand. if it won't turn over start pulling plugs cause you prolly hydro locked it
