Alternator not charging after nearby lighting strike
I posted earlier that our boat went through a very close lighting strike.

Thankfully everything checked out OK.

However now it appears that the batteries are not charging under the alternator. They charge from dock power.

Would it be possible that the alternator was damaged by the strike?
