Electrocution swimming warning.

[Shortstop]

I just read an article in the latest BoatUS magazine warning of the danger of swimming in marinas that run 110v electricity to boats. They cited several instances of deaths of children recently. Often the person jumping in to save the person dies too. It talked about how some strengths kill right away while lesser strengths paralyze, causing drowning.
My club has taken a stronger position on enforcing the No Swimming rule in our association in the marina, but we still have a lot of swimmers, including me. I think I might rethink that - this article made it real clear, swimming near electricity should not be done. It went on to talk about how you can minimize risk with GFI's (Europe requires) and other ways, but thats not cheap and in addition to the clubs line, each boat needs protection.
