No not adding it's already there... it's a 36 ft boat with a built in generator but boat is a Italian boat shipped to the states but just wanted to know if everything had to be grounded to the boats ground..
Bondo is right,that is why you never swim in a marina,or out on the water when the genset or inverter is running. If there is a problem that a fuse or circuit breaker don't catch,you are electricifing the water around the boat. If ya do get a shock when jumping in,and if ya can,dive as deep as ya can and swim away from the boat as far as ya can. The power follows the surface. And hope ya can get far enough away.
