Considerations for marine lightning protection – survey results
Published 11 years ago, updated 6 years ago
This survey, undertaken by Marie Dufour of MY Domino and published July 2013, gathered information about lightning strikes from a number of cruisers on the CRUISERS NETWORK ONLINE.
Marie told noonsite, “Our year in Panama, one of the most violent lightning zones in the world, has been a huge eye-opener. We have met over 12 yachts struck by lightning… Yet, only ONE of them changed his attitude and did something to protect his boat and electronics… amazing!!!
