Default Lightning Protection questions

What you are planning sounds like overkill to me, especially for Maine.


That's what I would have said (and did) earlier this year. However, I hear
of more strikes as I get around more. One was my slip neighbor before I was
docked there.

I'm also thinking of some fresh water tripsafter my recent Hudson experience
and would like to take the boat south for at least one winter. It's one of
those things where a little more isn't incrementally a lot of work once
you're set up to do the minimum. If I semi enjoy just one rip snorting
boomber instead of quaking in the forward V-berth, it will be worth it.

Besides, didn't we decide last year that "overkill" was my middle name?
