Emergency lightning protection

Like the vast majority of fiberglass boat owners, I'm sailing around in a
boat with next to no lightning protection....

I am building an open 20' power boat, of all-aluminum construction. It will
be used in all weather conditions, sometimes for "time-critical" trips. I
have toyed with the idea of shipping a short mast (boathook?) to disperse
any electrical charge, and hopefully channel any direct strikes along a
known path.
Any thoughts?
