    I am a believer in the Lightening Master, an over priced SS brush.

    It dissipates the charge built up on the boat through hundreds of tiny SS
    wires there by making your boat blend in to the electrical background.

    In the silence before a storm I could hear the little zaps from up top the
    mast. After 10 years many of the fine wires were considerably worn down.
