We got struck when I was working on a boat in Panama.

The bolt came through the radio antennae and exited through the port propeller. The antennae exploded and the propeller was heavily discolored. To top it off it was on the first morning of seven straight weeks of fishing!

I don't wish that kind of evil upon anyone.
