I'm adding a boat to the Next Boat list that has gone around most of the world, sailed to the remote south Atlantic islands that are on my list, is currently on my side of the Atlantic so all good so far...but has twice been struck by lightning.
This means either the boat is cursed or the chances of it being struck again are nil.
At the top of the listing it mentioned getting struck and I thought "Great. That's over with." But in the list of electronics it said that it was struck twice and I thought "Huh."
On the positive side, the electronics are new.
Everything else being OK, should I keep it on the list? Unlike the U.S. real estate industry, there probably are no disclosures that a boat seller has to make so I could conceivably buy a boat that was struck by lightning ten times and never know.
