[Rhodes22-list] Computer email advice to Eric

[Roger Pihlaja]

Rummy,

First of all, welcome back to the list!

I've never experienced the sort of static electricity build-up you describe,
so I will bow to your experience in this area.  But, why would the outboard
engine housing on Carol's boat be giving her a shock under these conditions,
especially if the motor was electrically disconnected from the boat's
electrical system?
