What do you do if you're on a lake in an aluminum pontoon boat and a thunderstorm comes up?

We were miles from the marina, so all we could do was find shore and platform there in the pouring rain. we were surrounded by trees and of course the aluminum boat. No shelter anywhere.
What should we do?
Your expected to squat down so you wont be the tallest thing for the lightening to hit. you sit on on the balls of your feet, with shoes on and don't touch any metal. You would have been safer on Real property than the boat stand away from the trees on

How do I paint the aluminum on the side railings of a pontoon boat?
Dec 29, 2006 by mastin_danes | Posted in Boats & Boating
I have a 24 foot pontoon sailboat. It is a 1988 Weere's brand.The aluminum on the railings are already painted a light tan and brown, and I would like to update the color some. The aluminum has a corroded look, not smooth to the touch, so I don't know
you will have to sand then primer it

I be familiar with this varies....do you know approx? or where can i find out?
i would fancy around, 3k to 2450 lbs. just find the displacement and subtract around 1500. there will be your answer. you can get displace ment by the botto of the knockabout, to the surface of the water, now measure width, and length. add togeather,
