Default 89 Force 125 - Fuel bowl fell off

I was out on the river yesterday and my boat stalled. I tried to start it back up for a couple of minutes and really smelled gas. I took the hood off of the motor and noticed that my fuel bowl fell off of my top carburetor. The gasket was still on the bowl so I put it back on and screwed the bolt back in. It seemed to tighten up so I am assuming that it just vibrated itself off over time. I was able to get it started and continue down the river. I was wondering if there is any damage that this could have caused when this happened. Also, is there anything else I should look for other than the bowl falling off. Could something else have fallen off?

If it started and ran fine then there does not appear to be any damage. Maybe a little Loc Tight on the screw to prevent it from backing out again.
