[C320-list] Lightning Proetection

[John Meyers]

I hope this subject isn't personal in an unfortunate way for anyone......

Is the 320 in anyway protected from lightning such as taking the lightning
from the mast to the keel? Or is the boat insulated enough by the
fiberglass as to not give lightning a way to travel into the cabin?

I have heard, we should attached jumper cables to the shrouds and drag the
other ends in the water?  I wonder if do this will attract lightning by
giving lightning an "easy" path.

Of course, with lightning nothing is for sure either good or bad.
