I have a small plastic dinghy. I want to put a trolling motor on it. I'm worried about the battery getting wet. I've read about people getter shocked on aluminum boats when batteries got wet. This little dinghy has a patched spot on it and I'm worried about it possibly sinking while I'm out on it on a lake. If I'm on the dinghy and it sinks with the battery on it, will I be in danger of getting electricuted? I've seen trolling motors on little pontoon chair things. Or even kayaks....how unsafe/safe is this. Thanks! and sorry for the stupid question, hopefully someone can take the time to toss up some insight on this.
