yeah , as posted abovemy boat was hit.
on the protection aspect, i'm with katysails.
after looking at the possibilites and methods of providing lightning
protection, it mostly seemed like snake oil
the only thing i did, besides repairing the damage, was to buy a lenght of
chain that i keep in the sertn locker that can be clipped on to the back
stay and dragged in the water.
other than that, a few prayers my come to mind.

How many folks have lightning "proofed" their boat?
Did you make your own modifications or buy a package? What systems are
better than others?
Have you ever been hit?
