[Public-List] lightning protection & grounding plates

   Quick question for you more experienced sailors. What protection do
   you take against lighting strikes?


   We had a rigging inspection done in preparation for spring, and the
   inspector noted that we had no ground to the mast. But he said there
   was no simple way to add a ground. He mentioned a grounding plate as a
   solution, but he doesnât particularly recommend it.


   How have other people addressed this?


   Thanks.
