RE: Two boats for Eric

WALT-
You asked me a difficult question and I stressed over it for a time and came up w a reasonable answer and now you're telling me you dodn't know the answer yourself???
I won't ever know if I'm right? If that grey boat only drew 28' I would think it would roll over w all those birds on the upper deck. I'd say it's just as likely to be 50'. But that's a lot of boat under the water. And about the FB...***** I didn't say I could tell the CG of a boat**** ... you did. I only assumed the obvious that the CG of a boat w a FB is going to be higher than one without** ...and significantly so but not (in most cases) dangerously so. Don't need any magic to tell that. The IGs are fine and I'm still looking at one*** ..out of the corner of my eye. Now** ...where's the CG on that grey boat Walt.
