Anybody is only kidding themselves if they think they can insulate the motor from the boat. The water is a "wire" connecting the boat and motor. To prove it, just connect an ohm meter between the motor and boat. There will be some amount of continuity, depending on conductivity of the water. Only distilled water (pure H20) is non-conductive.
