If you want to test if its a bad GFCI, plug something in that's not part of your system...ie a hair dryer...if it trips replace it...if not then it could be something with your equipment...some GFCI's are overly sensitive...is this receptacle a dedicated circuit or does it power other things aswell....if its dedicated i would suggest putting in a GFCI breaker meant for motor loads as the trip setting on them is 70ma instead of 7ma like GFCI plugs are(or atleast i believe its 7ma) then you wont get false alarm trips, but in the event that some equipment gets dropped in the water it will still trip!!
