The higher conductivity of saltwater may protect against electric-shock drownings (ESD) in the water, but increases the hazard of incidental contact such as grasping an energized handrail or wire rope dangling from a winch.
Right, I hear ya - I was specifically talking about ESD. I think that phenomenon is harder for people to understand/not as well known.
