[QUOTE="Specknreds, post: 108117, member: 801"] All of us Tinboaters need to be careful!!! Quote: Attached are photos of a lightning strike accident on Old Black Bayou near Lake Charles , La. This occurred a week or so ago and resulted in one fatality and the other individual injured. They were attempting to pick up anchor when the lightning bolt struck from an approaching thunderstorm. Remember, if you can hear thunder, you are at risk of being struck by lightning. If on a lake the Safest thing to do is get off the lake ASAP. Laying in the bottom of a boat whether metal or fiberglass offers no protection. [/QUOTE]
