Have you ever tested the righting movement on your boat.
** I was talking to a friend who suggested using a weighted string hanging on the center line of the boat taped to the overhead with a stick or yard stick laying athwartship. a couple heavy people standing on the outside rail after marking the incline then have them hop off or moving back to the centerline.
** *then I got lost as he started talking about there accurate weight and using *triganometry tables to compute the righting movement.*I should have prefaced this by saying he is a blow boater.** I can't think of any real use for this information.
