Default Ketch storm tatics

You're wrong on both counts. (maybe - depends
on how picky you're being.)

I happen to live in the lightning capital of the world.
I've seen more lightning strikes already than you
will see in your entire life.

I've weathered probably a dozen storms (gales, to be
technically correct - not tropical cyclone - I'm not playing
Beaufort here in case that's your angle.) at sea. I've
weathered two tropical storms and six hurricane aboard
but moored or anchored. Only an idiot gets caught at
sea in a tropical cyclone and I'm anything but an
idiot.

You've never been in a storm at sea and have no clue about lightning
either!
