No, I went in forward at about 25 mph thinking that it was only about 12-18 inches deep (note the missing grille - it broke on impact with the water then floated up onto the hood where it caught on the wipers). I had made it through the deepest part and was starting to climb out the other side when it stalled. It turns out that getting salt water up in the valleys between the cams tends to short out the ignition system - who knew? I was pleasantly surprised that the engine didn't suck any water in through the intake - later on I moved "install a snorkel" to the bottom of my to-do list.
