Re: Lightning protection
 

There should be a lot of variables in a lightning system.
Personally I'd just lay over any antennas or outriggers and poles. An incorrect system can be worst than none.
And of coarse try to leave the area. Sucking up to the biggest boat, dock or marshline makes me feel good but you know what thay say about getting under the tree in the middle of the field.

There was a diver that got hit while treading water by his buddys boat near here last month. I was a few miles North and may have seen the bolt...one of several that hit off Jupiter Island. I packed up and left...and then heard the chatter over ch 16 for assistance. You'd think the boat would'a taken the hit being that close.
