OK, hypothetical, but my quesiton is how do you handle being caught in
a lightening storm in a boat. I have two fiberglass boats an 18' and a 23'. 18 has an enclosed bow, and the 23 a small cuddie. basicly a bigger enclosed bow. Where I boat is Lake Carlyle, and it's about 10 mi. long and about 3 mi. wide. Now 'pop-up' showers arn't uncommon this time of year, but sometimes that little sprinkle can turn into a lightening storm while the boater is unawares. So while being caught in the rain. the bilge [s] are on, and you're headed in. the baot is wet.. you're wet. what is the concern about lightening? I'm thinking at least sit still and everybody head under the enclosures. until at least the lightning quits. What say ye? |
