Default Shocking experience weighing anchor.

IIRC he's got an old IOR racer converted for cruising, not aluminum.

I do have an old IOR racer, converted for cruising that IS Aluminum, however
that is my Wifes boat. The boat the shocks happened on was a Fiberglass boat.
The wind generator threw a winding, and it was grounding on the magnets in the
housing. I may have been barefoot, as it was in the little latitudes.
