I mean, the crew part of it is water proof, right? It has to be air tight...

I'm guessing there are things on the "outside" that might still have issues?

The first part of your post reminded me of this quote from Futurama.

Professor Farnsworth: Good Lord! That's over 5000 atmospheres of pressure!

Fry: How many atmospheres can the ship withstand?

Professor Farnsworth: Well, it was built for space travel, so anywhere between zero and one.
