Walt,
This is fascinating and well past my electronics knowledge. For the price of those diodes ($6 for 10) it would seem worth installing a bunch on sensitive electronics - even if it's just a "placebo" for the lightening worried skipper. Any reason not to? Both positive and negative leads?
I'm thinking here of Maine Sail's situation. Not a direct hit but close enough to do real damage.
