Has anyone experienced a lightning strike on a boat?
My boat was moored in my harbor for two weeks without use. Two weeks previous I brought the boat right up to the mooring (outboard) and called for the launch on my radio. When I returned to the boat my radio didn't work (had to trash it) and my outboard was seized. I didn't see any burn marks so it may just be a coincidence. Any anecdotal evidence appreciated.
