SD, I see you have a set of stabilisers on your boat, are you happy with them and do they make much of a difference when anchored? I am getting a set built at the moment.
I have been fighting with the same issue. My boat is a little rocky and tippy She was built with a 10,000 lb fish hold.
Meant to be either hauling fish or ice.
The previous owner or perhaps even the builder added bilge keels and the*paravane Stabilizer.
The para vanes are really a have to have for a more comfortable ride.
Even just putting one out. As when you are anchored up fishing sure quiets the roll.
