A very important thing I learned from having a dock on the coast is mount ALL junction boxes well above dock level. Storms on the Gulf coast have high tides that will get over the docks, and I'm not talking of just hurricanes. We mounted all outlets and junction boxes about waist high, and it makes sense to do something similar on lake docks where splashes and wake from boats can cause shorts. I believe the women who were electrocuted were on an aluminum floating dock, which has extra problems. Also, wiring on docks and aluminum docks should have their own grounding rod, just to be extra careful.
