Water will evaporate rapidly even at temps well below 212.

185 is plenty to get all the water out of the system, it does not have to boil.

Last winter I was driving my 911 in COLD weather. Low single digits and after an hour of just driving around the oil temp was just 110 or 120. It would not warm up enough to push the engine hard enough to get warm. I had to keep it below 3,500 RPM.
