Re: Thunderstorms
STORMS..
monitor your marine weather channel it will put out alerts. on days forecasting storms fish to the west of your launch site you usually will beat developing storms in. if your near the islands you can always tuck in on the lee side. NEVER hide in a cabin or drift sideways motor slow put life jackets on and lower your antenna.

Re: Thunderstorms
If it were me and there was no chance to tuck on the leeward side of any islands:
1). Life jackets
2). notify someone on land of exact location with picture of GPS
3). antenna down
4). Say a prayer
5). Motor slowly into waves at 45 degree angle
