I have my mast out on land right now and am rewiring. I wanted to add
lighting protection.
Nigel calder suggests a POINTED ROD whose highest point rests above
the level of the VHF antenna.
Calder doesn't say what the rod should be composed of- copper seems
the right thing....
From the bottom of the mast at the thru deck step, I plan to wire
some copper (#2 wire ) thru the deck to an eye bolt in my bilge.
(It's a 1970 bristol 27 and does not have keel bolts.)
Does this sound like a plan? Are most people lighting protecting who
live aboard?
Seems like a good feeling when caught in a line squall.
Thanks
