*Geez, if you guys can whip up an inclining experiment just by looking at a boat you have a solid future in naval architecture.
And why does everyone think that adding ballast makes a boat ride better? Just the opposite is commonly the case.
*Ok fair comment I guess Rick, I'm no naval architect for sure, but just on the surface of it, don't you think a 46' boat, which weighs little more than my 34', with such high topsides windage, and rigged for sail might not be a bit tender..not to mention bouncy in a seaway...hypothetically at least..?
