[Alberg30] Lightning protection

[vinegar joe]

before you do anything to your boat, i'd recommend a
look at the following website:   

www.thomson.ece.ufl.edu/lightning/

maybe this site has been mentioned in the past.  it
has a really thorough and understandable discussion of
lightning, the risk it poses to boats, and the proper
steps to minimize the risk.  *****
