Dave Genz put an under water microphone down a hole to test this a couple of years ago now. He found that only the sound of the cutting blades could be heard under the water.
I tend to get into an area and drill a number of holes that way no more drilling disturbance while I'm fishing.
Only big advantage to electric augers is drilling inside ice chantey's.
