This is a followup to my article of 7/6/99. My boat is a 33.6 Hunter. As previously stated my depth guage, autopilot and the output only on my vhf stopped working. We have been having lots of rain in the area and lightning and are beginning to wonder if these instruments could have been damaged by lightning. We checked all fuses and connection. There is no evidence of a short of burning of any kind. The grounds are okay. Any thoughts?????

Sounds Like Lightning

When I read your first post it sounded like lightning damage. Insurance Claim? The RF output module fails in the VHF transmitter and is about $40 plus labor. The antenna could be possibly damaged also. A new VHF can be had for $129
