You are in a bad neighborhood.
My money says either your neighbors have "hot" (improperly grounded)
boats or the marina wiring has problems.
Either way, it's either for your neighbors and/or marina to make
repairs or find another dock.
You probably have to build a case.
Yoou need a meter that can detect ground currents.
I'd find another dock, if I could.
Good luck.

and do it quickly!
