Glove, I know that on land, lightning typically strikes the highest point. On many boats, the pole light is not the highest point on by far. Canopy frames and such would be more at risk IMO. I guess it boils down to what you think the bigger risk is...getting struck by lightning, or getting struck by another boat who couldn't see you.
