Thought I would pass this along for what it is worth. For a simple symmetrical box type hull 16' long, 2' wide, 200 pounds of displacement, CG fixed 1' above the baseline which was at the bottom of the boat I got the following from a 5% change in the base boat. Righting Arm in feet at 1 degree heel Base boat 0.0111 Cm 0.0112 CG 0.0119 Beam 0.0153 CWP 0.0162 It would be interesting to see if some one comes up with different magnitudes of variation.
