Ha Muddy Water
You can’t put it on the transom because when you are running the boat the transom is out of the water, so it has to be under the hull which makes placement a issue. I have a scoop, and transducer down there now so I Can't put it in front of them, plus the prop Can't put it in front of it. I am also thinking about underwater lights when I night fish so there is two other locations messed up plus the bunks for the trailer and the chins for the forklift if needed. These grounding plates are made of brass but the reason they cost approx $100.00 is because it is specially designed to disperse a charge. I guess you can put it behind something else but again for me at least it is attached to something brass. Maybe someday I will but one behind my scoop instead of attaching to the scoop.
If you think along Spidercrack’s line of thinking than all you got to do is jump up into the air Exactly at the same moment that the lighting hits with out toughing anything on the boat and you will be just fine. But looking at Spidercrack’s aviator I don’t think he could jump that high much less time his jump correctly.
