Default Lightning and Sailboats

A "guest sailboat" was on our dock when its was struck by lightning. It was a wooden boat with a wood mast but had metal track which ran the length of the mast. My boats fiberglass hull was penetrated making a 2'' diameter hole at the bow. Floatation foam was all over the place and gauges on the dash destroyed. My neighbors boat had the same damage.
