RSS FeedsUnsafe Aquatic Vessels During Lightning Activity
The type of vessels which are most unsafe to be in during lightning activity are vessels which do not have a cabin. These vessels are typically small, ranging from a couple of feet to 20-30 feet. These include:
- Canoes
- Water scooters ("ski-dos", or any other type of "personal" water craft)
- Inner tubes
- Rafts
- Boats without a cabin, such as Bass boats and Ski boats
- Sail boats without a cabin
It is important to note that just because a vessel is made of rubber does NOT make it safe to be in when lightning is occurring.
