To add a note. If you clip the ground wire in the panel and that particular ground wire is tied into in other ground wire somewhere else in the house or in the yard, (which is very common), then you will still have a "panel ground" on that circuit. And you will still get the "phantom" voltage. You must make sure to totally isolate the ground. This can best be done by disconnecting the ground just before it reaches the dock. Because the ground may be used outside of the house for lighting, plugs, etc. I would not just disconnet this ground without attaching it to an isolated ground rod as I said before. Hope this helps.
