Warning Strong Currents: The Risks of Current Leakage
The danger lurking within marinas isn't the water itself but an invisible threat, concealed beneath the surface. No it’s not Loch Ness or a 25 feet Great White shark. In fact, it is something that cannot be seen with the naked eye but is felt instantaneously upon entering the water. It's the leakage of alternating current (AC) into the water. With numerous boats moored side by side, many of which might not meet safety standards, along with aging, improperly installed, or modified dock equipment, there are ample opportunities for current leakage to manifest.
