An ex-girl friend's Pearson 10M was hit by lightning a few days ago.
She went aboard for the 1st sail of the season and found nothing
worked....electronics dead and even the bilge pump was dead. Insurance
was called and now she has the long process of a proper survey and
replacement of just about everything, which will take some time.
Hopefully the hull is not compromised. What a drag.
It's strange that every lightning strike I hear of at City Island is on
a mooring and never at a slip. Everyone I spoke to says this is just
luck since our marina is just 1/2 mile away from her mooring area.
