 last time I knew anything about water, it was a conductor of electricity  
So you should be earthed  with a few exceptions  |
Pure water is actually a weak electrolyte believe it or not! |
Yeah, like I said, a few exceptions ...lol 20 coats of paint and a weeks washing drying out over them won't do wonders for conductivity either   |
Yeah- water is only conducting because it has salts dissolved in it which possess ions which are charged and mobile [and complex to the water].
Pure water is neutral (albeit dipolar) molecules held in a rigid lattice by hydrogen bonds!
