Hi Scott,
That was my question!! So I increased the displacement up to I think it
was 1800 lbs before the capsize figure went below 2 which is considered a
good score, at least according to the authors of this particular book and Dr
Adler.
It was kind of fun changing the data and seeing how that effected each
of the categories. You can also compare boats in each of the categories.
According to Dennis' message there was a lengthy conversation on this in
the recent(?) past. Dennis, if you are listening could you give me an idea
of when so I can go into the archives?
Thanks,
Alan
