I would make an external ground from 10' or so of 3/4 copper pipe fastened to the bottom of the boat, and connect the green ground wire to that.

I read an article from Don Casey about installing shore power systems, and he says to connect the green ground to the engine block. I no longer have an engine block, so that option does not exist. Both the 48v and 12v DC systems are floating, and I was going to make the 120v AC system the same. My prop shaft is also electrically isolated. I was curious as to how others handled this. Thanks to everyone in advance!
