Danger of electric shock from batteries in small boats?
Right, it's the amps, not the volts that get you and these batteries
generally have a minimum of 450 amps.

It's almost impossible to be injured by low voltage sources like 12v
batteries. That's one of the reasons a lot of outdoor and pool
lighting is low voltage. You might get a tingle that surprises you if
your are soaking wet and touch both battery terminals.
Bull****. You go get yourself wet and put your hands on the battery
terminals. You'll get a a HELLUVA shock from the amperage that's present.
