You can get devices called 'earth clamps' that are normally open circuit
but prevent a high potential difference by 'firing' and shorting it out.

I wonder if some similar system is available in the marine environment
that can be used to ensure the various 'grounds' can't get a dangerous
level of potential between them, but normally keeps them isolated.
