[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 505509, member: 3438"] The "hot" terminals have the cover to prevent inadvertant contact with ground terminals. The hull maybe grounded through the motor, so protects from contact to the alum hull, too. ie something conductive falls across the terminals or "hot" to hull. Freshwater is not very conductive. Saltwater is. It would probably need to be submerged to short across. [/QUOTE]
