If its at the steering wheel, is it shocky at the motor end of the steering cable? Unpainted parts of motor?
I got shocked on the cowling latches of my old Merc 150. Plug wires arcing to the metal latch.

Check for corroded/loose ground (neg) connections on the motor and the battery. If there is a "high resistance" poor connection, the juice my be trying to find a return wherever it can.
